Three boltsthen leap from that target to as many as three othertargets, each of which must be within 30 feet of the firsttarget. A target can be a creature or an object and canbe targeted by only one of the bolts.A target must make a Dexterity saving throw. Thetarget takes 10d8 lightning damage on a failed save, orhalf as much damage on a successful one.Evasion:  Beginning at 7th level, you can nimbly dodge out of theway of certain area effects, such as a red dragon’s fierybreath or an ice storm spell. When you are subjectedto an effect that allows you to make a Dexterity savingthrow to take only half damage, you instead take nodamage if you succeed on the saving throw, and onlyhalf damage if you fail.</blockquote>
