Duration:
Until the start of your next turn

You summon myriad razor sharp blades, which orbit you closely at high speed.

You resist physical damage,
and rolls to hit you with ranged attacks have disadvantage.
Once per turn, when an adjacent creature attacks you, they take 1d4 silvered slashing damage,
+1d4 damage per boost from Intensify.

Suggested Backfire: The blades spin out of control, and damage you.
