A phasing wall of force spell creates an invisible wall of force that phases through time. The wall cannot move (except through time), it is immune to damage of all kinds, and it is unaffected by most spells, including dispel magic. It is, however, affected by Time Stop and other effects that dispel or modify the passage of time. Disintegrate immediately destroys it, as does a rod of cancellation, a sphere of annihilation, or a mage’s disjunction spell. Breath weapons and spells cannot pass through the wall in either direction, although dimension door, teleport, temporal magic and similar effects can bypass the barrier. It blocks ethereal creatures as well as material ones (though ethereal creatures can usually get around the wall by floating under or over it through material floors and ceilings), and all creatures can pass through when it’s out of phase with the current round. Gaze attacks can operate through a phasing wall of force.

The phasing effect means that the wall is there for one round, not there another (forward in time), then there, then not there (backward in time), etc.

The caster can form the wall into a flat, vertical plane whose area is up to one 10-foot square per level. The wall must be continuous and unbroken when formed. If its surface is broken by any object, creature or temporal effect, the spell fails.

Phasing wall of force can be made permanent with a permanency spell. Of course, it still shifts through time, even when permanent.

Material Component

A pinch of powder made from a clear gem and a pinch of sand from an hourglass.

This spell is related to phase object, detailed in an earlier post. This spell, like phase object, were developed by Faduardo Gantonín, a high mage of the Phyloctæte

Spell: Briar Brambles

Briar Brambles
Transmutation
Druid 4
Components: V, S, DF
Casting Time: 10 minutes
Range: Short
Area: 5′ cubes defined by the caster within a 40′ radius (2 cubes / caster level)
Duration: perm.
Saving Throw: see text
Spell Resistance: none

This spell grows dangerous brambles that prevent passage. Anyone entering the area of the brambles risks entanglement and injury by the vine’s thorny appendages and a magical sleeping posion carried on their thorns.

The spell’s effects are identical to those of the entangle spell, with the following changes and additions.

The spell causes to grow areas of thick, strong, aminate brambles. Any creature entering the area of the brambles must make a grapple check against the brambles. The brambles have a strength of 17 (+3), and a BAB equal to your caster level (minimum grapple +10). Any creatures caught up in the brambles take 1d6+3 points of bludgeoning and slashing damage on a sucessful grapple check as the thorny tentacles crush and lacerate them. In addition, anyone taking slashing damage from the briar brambles is subject to a mild sleeping posion (DC 12 + caster’s Wisdom Bonus. Fortutde save or sleep (per sleep spell) for 1d4 hours or until woken).

Anyone who falls asleep in the brambles as a result of the venom is merely held securely, and will no longer be crushed and torn. Upon their waking or during attempts to disentangle sleeping prisoners the brambles will hold tight and resume crushing.

The brambles will obey the orders of the caster of the spell, to the extent of their limited abilities (“crush him, don’t crush her”, “part and let me pass” etc). The brambles are also vulnerable to any spells that control or effect plants.

Each 5′ area of brambles has the following statistics: Medium Magical Plant AC: 15 HP: 45 (hd:10d8) DR: 5/slashing Vulnerability to Fire (150% damage) Saves Fort: +9 Ref: +1 Will: +8 Str: 17 Con: 15 Dex: 7 Int: 4 Wis: 13 Cha: 12
