Hex is a level 1 enchantment spell. This spell allows spellcasters to put a curse on a creature and deal additional Necrotic damage to the targeted creature. The curse also imposes Disadvantage on a chosen ability check.

Necrotic damage to the target and give it 
Disadvantage on Checks on an Ability of your choosing.
If the target dies before the spell ends, you can use a Bonus Action to Hex a new creature without expending a Spell Slot.
Variants:

How to learn
Classes:
- Class Level 1: Warlock
Notes
- Hex damage is applied multiple times for multiple successful
Attack rolls. Example scenarios:
- Warlock hits the target with a melee or ranged weapon attack: additional 1d6Necrotic.
- Level 1 Warlock casts
Eldritch Blast and hits the target: additional 1d6Necrotic. - Level 5 Warlock casts Eldritch Blast and hits the target with both rays: additional 2d6Necrotic, for hitting twice.
- Level 3 Warlock casts
Scorching Ray and hits the target with all three rays: additional 3d6Necrotic, for hitting three times. - Level 5 Warlock casts Scorching Ray and hits the target with all four rays: additional 4d6Necrotic, for hitting four times.
- Warlock hits the target with a melee or ranged weapon attack: additional 1d6
- Hex is only triggered by hitting the target with a successful Attack Roll, and not by other sources of damage. Example scenarios:
- Warlock casts
Magic Missile (which does not require Attack Rolls): no additional damage from Hex. - Warlock casts
Fireball (which is a Saving Throw, not an Attack Roll): no additional damage from Hex.
- Warlock casts
- In Early Access Patch 9, there is a bugged interaction between Hex and the Eldritch Invocation
Agonising Blast, which causes Agonising Blast bonus damage to be applied an extra time for each instance of Hex damage.
- In the case of a level 5 Warlock with two Eldritch Blast beams, this means Agonising Blast damage will be applied a total of 4 times, if both beams hit: once for each beam, and once for each instance of Hex damage.
