=== Level 2, Evocation ===

//**Casting Time:** Bonus Action , **Range:** 60 Feet , **Components:** V (Vocal) - S (Somatic), **Duration:** 1 Minuet, \\ **Special Material:** - // \\

**Effect**
  *You create a floating, spectral weapon within range that lasts for the duration or until you cast this spell again. \\ When you cast the spell, you can make a melee spell attack against a creature within 5 feet of the weapon. On a hit, the target takes force damage equal to 1d8 + your spellcasting ability modifier. \\ As a bonus action on your turn, you can move the weapon up to 20 feet and repeat the attack against a creature within 5 feet of it.
  *The weapon can take whatever form you choose. Clerics of deities who are associated with a particular weapon (as St. Cuthbert is known for his mace and Thor for his hammer) make this spell’s effect resemble that weapon.

**At Higher Levels**
  *When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d8 for every two slot levels above the 2nd.
