You lean towards the chosen creature, holding your hand next to your mouth as you whisper words of despair to a target creature of your choice within range. That creature must make a Wisdom saving throw against your modified spell save DC (8 + Prof + Spell casting mod -5). If a creature succeeds on this saving throw, it is unaffected by your words and cannot be affected by your casting of this spell for the next 3 days. If the creature fails, it becomes vulnerable to psychic and 1 other damage type of your choice from; poison, acid, cold, fire or necrotic, for 1 minute. If the creature has immunity to all of the damage types of your choice, the spell instead automatically fails.
At Higher Levels. For each level this spell is cast above 4th, you lower the spell save DC penalty by 1 and choose an additional damage type.
If this spell is cast at 9th level, the range instead becomes 60ft as you emit a cacophonic screech of their name, the target becomes vulnerable to all damage types, regardless of immunity for 24 hours and becomes frightened of you for the same duration.
