With a word, you send a dart of force streaking toward a creature that you can see. It automatically hits and deals 1d4 force damage plus force damage equal to half your Proficiency Score. When casting this spell, you can increase the casting by a Material Casting action, a Somatic Casting action, or both. For each action you take, increase the number of missiles you shoot by one.
