You tap into the nightmares of a creature you can see within range and create an illusory manifestation of its deepest fears, visible only to that creature. The target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or become frightened for the duration. At the end of each of the target's turns before the power ends, the target must succeed on a Wisdom saving throw or take 4d10 psychic damage. On a successful save, the power ends. This power has no effect on droids or constructs.
