Black Candle

Target. One object you can see within range.

Effect. The object becomes surrounded by a 10-foot-radius sphere of shadow magic for the duration. Areas of bright light or darkness become dim light within the sphere.

Saving Throw. If the object is being held or worn by a hostile creature, the creature must succeed on a Dexterity saving throw to avoid the spell.

Special. The spell ends if you cast it again or dismiss it as an Action.

Cantrip Progression. This spell improves in certain ways when you reach higher levels. At 5th level, you can control the radius of the sphere down to a minimum of 5 feet, or a maximum of 20 feet as a Bonus Action as long as it is within 300 feet of you. At 11th level, the range of the spell becomes 120 feet. At 17th level, you can choose to expand the radius to a maximum of 60 feet. At 23rd level, the spell no longer ends if you use it again. At 28th level, the spell lasts until dispelled or until you dismiss any number of candles as an action.
