Life Tether in Dungeons & Dragons 5e
Grim Hollow: Player's Guide 24, adjusted
Life Tether
2-level Necromancy
Choose a creature you can see within range. The target must make a Wisdom saving throw. On a failed save, a sickly green tether forms between you and your target. Whenever you take damage, the tethered target takes half as much damage (round down) as Necrotic damage. The tether breaks if the target is more than 120 feet away from you. If the target drops to 0 Hit Points before this spell ends, you can take a Bonus Action to move the tether to a new creature you can see within range. The new target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or be tethered.
AN: This feels like it could be very powerful and perhaps should be 3rd level. The initial casting range was also heavily reduced, seems more flavourful that way.
You can create additional tethers with a spell slot of level 4 (two tethers), 6 (three tethers), or 8 (four tethers).
