I want a real low level version of arcane sword for bard, wizards, and wizard rogues.
Subtle Knife
2th-level transmutation
Casting Time: 1 action
Range: 10 feet
Components: V, M (a dagger)
Duration: 1 minute
You enchant a dagger to float within range. It lasts for the duration, and at the end, it returns to your hand or a holster for it by a mental command.
As a bonus action on your turn, you may make a melee spell attack against a target of your choice within 5 feet of the dagger. On a hit, the target takes 1d4 + spell casting modifier magic slashing damage. This is a purely mental action to command the dagger. You do have fine motor control of the dagger so this can be used to cut ropes on held people without a change of hurting the individual as if you were cutting with your hands. You may concentrate on other spells while this spell in in effect.
Thoughts?
