    You unleash a blade of pure arcane force that slices through the target. The spell deals 4d6 damage and can cut through magical barriers or destroy enchanted objects. The blade appears as a thin, glowing line of energy that leaves a brief afterimage.

    At Higher Levels

    At 6th level, the damage increases to 8d6 force damage. At 9th level, the damage increases to 6d10 force damage, and the blade can cut through any barrier.

    Special

    The spell is particularly effective against constructs, animated objects, and magical barriers. Severing limbs or similar effects only occur when the Dungeon Narrator determines the target is particularly vulnerable.
