6th-level enchantment (Bard)


  • Casting Time: 1 bonus action
  • Range: 60 feet
  • Components: V, S
  • Duration: Instantaneous

You shout a verse from an ancient battle hymn to spur an unexpected attack. Choose an ally within range. That ally can use its reaction to make a melee weapon attack against a hostile creature within its reach. If no hostile creature is within reach, as part of the same reaction, the ally can move up to 15 feet closer to a hostile creature before making the attack. On a hit, the target suffers the attack's normal effects, and takes an additional 1d8 psychic damage.

At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, the psychic damage increases by 1d8 for each slot level above 6th.
