Red Magic
Lay Your Foes to Waste with Arcane Fury

Hex: Imperil
Transmutation Cantrip (Witch, Red Magic subclass)
Casting Time: Action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 round
You gesture at a creature you can see within range and choose a damage type. The creature must succeed on a Constitution saving throw or lose Resistance to that damage type, if it has Resistance to it. If it has Immunity to that damage type, it instead has Resistance to it. The spell ends at the end of your next turn.
Level 6: Convolute Energy
When a creature you can see within 60 feet of yourself deals Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Thunder damage to one or more creatures, you can change that damage type to one of the other listed types (no action required).
You can use this feature a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all expended uses when you finish a Long Rest.
Level 10: Invulnerability
When a creature that you can see hits you with an attack, you can take a Reaction to reduce the damage you take from the attack by 50, to a minimum of 0.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest. You can also restore your use of it by expending a level 4+ spell slot (no action required).
Level 14: Elemental Annihilation
When you cast a level 1+ Witch spell that deals Acid, Cold, Fire, Lightning, or Thunder damage, you can expend another spell slot of equal or higher level to deal maximum damage with that spell on the turn you cast it.
Once you use this feature, you can’t use it again until you finish a Long Rest.
