\subsection{Vampiric Touch}\label{vampiric-touch}

\emph{3rd---level necromancy}

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  \textbf{Casting Time:} 1 action
\item
  \textbf{Range:} Self
\item
  \textbf{Components:} V, S
\item
  \textbf{Duration:} Concentration, up to 1 minute
\end{itemize}

The touch of your shadow---wreathed hand can siphon lif-force from
others to heal your wounds. Make a melee spell attack against a creature
within your reach. On a hit, the target takes 3d6 necrotic damage, and
you regain hit points equal to half the amount of necrotic damage dealt.
Until the spell ends, you can make the attack again on each of your
turns as an action.

\textbf{At Higher Levels:} When you cast this spell using a spell slot
of 4th level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level
above 3rd.
