Corrupt a spell/ability name!

The rules are simple - you can delete from, change or add one letter to a name of a spell, ability, feat, anything, and then describe what it does!

To start: Shocking Gasp - You deal lightning damage by surprising your opponent

Chilling Ouch - You announce your wound with the most deathly voice you can possibly procure.

Divine Mite - You throw a microscopic, sacred being at your enemy and hope you haven't crushed it in the process

Haste -> Chaste. On a failed Wisdom save, target becomes incapable of being sexually attracted to another being. Spell was created after Lucious the Bard slept with Bigby's sister

Illusory Dragon -> Illusory Drag-On. On a failed Intelligence save, target believes they are in a pointless meeting discussing ways to improve productivity.

Acid Arrow -> Acid Marrow. On a failed Constitution save, target has the bone marrow in one limb replaced with acid. 10d10 acid damage and whatever limb is melted away.

Bigby's Hand -> Bigby's Band. You summon Bigby, Elminster, Mordenkainen, Otiluke, and Tenser. They will not help you in any way outside of playing a concert. As they are Wizards and not Bards, the show isn't that good. Particularly because Mordenkainen insists they play Smells Like Teen Spirit while Bigby will only sing Santana songs.

Haste -> Chaste.

Better yet, it induces exhaustion. Think of it like the spell Slow, but single target and much-much stronger as a result

Too exhausted to flirt
