You can blind or deafen a foe. Choose one creature that you can see
within range to make a Constitution saving throw. If it fails, the
target is either :ref:`blinded` or :ref:`deafened` (your choice) for the duration. At
the end of each of its turns, the target can make a Constitution saving
throw. On a success, the spell ends.

slot level above 2nd.
