Abhorrent Apparition

4-level Illusion

Casting Time: 1 action

Range/Area: 60ft.

Components: Material

Materials: a gourd with a face carved on it

Duration: Instant

Attack/Save: WIS Save

Damage/Effect: Psychic

You imbue a terrifying visage onto a gourd and toss it ahead of you to a spot of your choosing within range. Each creature within 15 feet of that spot takes 6d8 psychic damage and becomes frightened of you for 1 minute; a successful Wisdom saving throw halves the damage and negates the fright. A creature frightened in this way repeats the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on itself on a success.

At higher levels: If you cast this spell using a spell slot of 5th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 4th.
