Source: Spells That Don't Suck
You pierce the mind of one creature you can see within range. The target must make an Intelligence saving throw, taking 3d8 psychic damage on a failure, or half as much damage on a success. On a failure, you psychically pin the target and link yourself to its mind. For the duration, you can use a bonus action to mentally twist the skewer, causing the creature to subtract 1d4 from the next saving throw it makes before the end of your next turn.
Additionally, you have perfect knowledge of the target’s location as long as you are on the same plane of existence. The target can’t be hidden from you and gains no benefit from the invisible condition against you. If you maintain concentration for the full duration, this knowledge persists 1 hour after the spell ends.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 2nd.
