You conjure a 30-foot radius circle of churning water centered on a point on the ground or in a body of water which you can see within range. The whirlpool's area is difficult terrain, but it is not deep enough to require swimming. Any creature that starts its turn there or enters on its turn must make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, it takes 5d8 bludgeoning damage and is pulled 10 feet towards the center. If the spell targets an existing body of water, the damage increases by 1d8.
At higher levels: When you cast this spell 6th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each level above 5th.
