You exhume an electrifying aura of static for the duration, striking any creature in the area with sparks of lightning. As a part of your action to cast the spell, and as a bonus action on subsequent turns, you unleash a small bolt of lightning that strikes a creature within 20 feet of you. The target creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw or take 2d8 lightning damage, taking half on a success.
At higher levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 6th level or higher, the damage of each bolt increases by 1d8 per spell slot level expended above 5th.
