All attack rolls against you for the duration lose 1d4 off the roll.
Why don't we just ban weapons from hitting us?
-Abjurist Elliot Kamparan's breakthrough thesis
Conjure a floating hand in range for the duration. It vanishes if you cast the spell again or if it is ever more than 30 feet away.
On casting, and as a magic action on later turns, you can make the hand manipulate an object, open a door or container, pour out a vial, or stow or retrieve an item from an open container. On later turns, you can also move the hand 30 feet as part of the action. It cannot attack, activate magic items, or carry more than 10 pounds.
Finally! Heeka can reach all the pretty shiny things!

Sweep the area around you with spectral blades. All creatures within 5 feet of you roll a dexterity save to avoid 1d6 force damage. This damage scales as a cantrip.
This will be easy. That elf is unarmed.
