An undead hand rises from the ground to attack a creature of your choice within range. Make a melee spell attack roll. On a hit the target takes 1d6 bludgeoning damage, and until the start of your next turn, the target takes a further 1d6 damage for every 5 feet it moves willingly. At the start of your next turn, the spell ends and the hand sinks back into the ground.

This spell summons two hands when you reach 5th-level, three hands when you reach 11th-level, and four hands when you reach 17th-level. Each hand can target only one creature. Make a melee spell attack roll for each hand.
