Warp Wood (Alteration) Level: 1 Range: 10 yds./level Components: V, S, M Casting Time: 4 Duration: Permanent Area of Effect: Special Saving Throw: None This spell causes wood to bend and warp. The area of effect is equal to 15 inches of 1 inch-diameter wood per level, which is approximately a hand axe handle or four crossbow bolts. The spell can be used against the boards of a ship or a bolted door. If used on magical items or enchanted objects, it succeeds only if the caster is of higher level than the level of the spell on the door or object, and then only has a 20% chance of success per level of difference. The material component of this spell is a green twig, which is bent as the spell is cast. Notes: Common in oriental settings; otherwise, very rare.
