Upon casting Venomous Vengeance, your weapon drips with a supernatural, virulent poison. The next time you hit a creature with a melee weapon attack during this spell’s duration, the weapon not only inflicts its usual damage but also coats the target in a potent toxin, dealing an extra 2d6 poison damage. Additionally, the afflicted target must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or become poisoned until the end of your next turn.
Venomous Vengeance embodies the paladin’s ability to mete out divine justice, utilizing a form of retribution that lingers and incapacitates. It symbolizes the spreading influence of their holy mission, not merely striking down foes but leaving a mark that weakens their resolve and ability to harm others.
When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, the poison damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level above 2nd.
