Venom Spikes

You summon an array of toxic caltrops onto the ground around a point within range, making the ground nearby count as difficult terrain.

Any grounded creature that moves into this area or starts its turn within it must make a Constitution saving throw against your spell save DC, or become Poisoned for one minute.

Every time a creature touching the ground moves 5 feet through the area, they take 1d12 Piercing damage.

This spell can be dismissed at any time by the caster as an action.

At higher levels, increase the maximum spell duration to 10 minutes at 3rd-Level, 1 hour at 4th-Level, and 10 hours at 5th-Level.
