Absorb Energy. When you take Acid Damage, Cold Damage, Fire Damage, Lightning Damage, or Thunder Damage, you can take a Reaction to expend one sphere and give yourself Resistance to the triggering damage type until the start of your next turn.

Energy Blast. As a Bonus Action, you send one sphere hurtling toward a target within 120 feet of yourself. Make a Ranged Spell Attack. On a hit, the target takes 3d6 Acid Damage, Cold Damage, Fire Damage, Lightning Damage, or Thunder Damage (your choice). Regardless of whether you hit, the sphere is expended.

---

The spell ends early if you have no more spheres remaining.

Using a Higher-Level Spell Slot. The number of spheres increases by 1 for every spell slot level above 6.
