You touch a creature and expend 1 hit point, opening a wound
where you touch. Make a melee spell attack against the target.
You have advantage on the attack roll if the target is below half
its hit point maximum. On a hit, the target takes 1d12 necrotic
damage. If this damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, you gain
temporary hit points equal to the damage dealt. These temporary
hit points last for 1 minute.
At higher levels: The spell's damage increases by 1d12 when you reach 5th level
(2d12), 11th level (3d12), and 17th level (4d12)
