Chain Lightning

You create a bolt of lightning that arcs toward a target of your choice that you can see within range.

3 bolts then leap from that target to as many as three other targets, each of which must be within 30ft of the first target. A target can be a creature or an object and can be targeted by only one of the bolts.

A target must make a Dexterity saving throw. The target takes 10d8 lightning damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

At Higher Levels

When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 7th level or higher, one additional bolt leaps from the first target to another target for each slot level above 6th.
