Vicious Mockery

Enchantment Cantrip

Casting Time: 1 action or bonus action

Range: 60 feet

Components: V

Duration: Instantaneous

You unleash a string of insults laced with subtle enchantments at a creature you can see within range. If the target can hear you (though it need not understand you), it must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 1d6 psychic damage and have disadvantage on the next attack roll it makes before the end of its next turn.

Additionally, you can cast this spell as a bonus action on your turn instead of an action. You must not have already cast a spell or cantrip that deals damage, or have made a weapon attack to do so this way. When cast as a bonus action, it instead deals 1d4 psychic damage on a failed save, and does not impose disadvantage on the creature's next attack roll. You cannot cast a spell or cantrip that deals damage or make a weapon attack after casting this as a bonus action on your turn.

At Higher Levels. This spell’s damage increases by 1d6 or 1d4 when you reach 5th level (2d6 or 2d4), 11th level (3d6 or 3d4), and 17th level (4d6 or 4d4).
