The blade in your hand is limned with crimson flame. As part of the action used to cast this spell, you must make a melee attack with the weapon, otherwise the spell fails. On a miss, the spell ends.

On a hit, the target suffers the attack's normal effects and takes an additional 3d6 fire damage, and until the spell ends, your attacks with the weapon deal an extra 1d6 fire damage on a hit.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 4th level or higher, whenever you deal fire damage with his spell, the fire damage is increased by an amount equal to your spellcasting ability modifier.
