A vine, adorned with savage thorns, sprouts from the ground and wraps itself snake-like around the body of a creature within range. The creature must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be restrained by the vicious thorns. If the creature is prone, they automatically fail this saving throw.
On a failed save, the creature also takes 2d6 slashing and 2d6 poison damage from the thorns ripping their flesh. On a successful save, the creature takes half of this damage and is not restrained.
The creature takes another 1d6 slashing and1d6 poison damage at the end of every turn that they are still restrained.
A creature restrained by the plants can use its action to make a Strength check against your spell save DC. On a success, it frees itself. When the spell ends, the conjured vine rots away.
When cast at Higher Levels, the initial slashing/poison damage caused by the spell increases by 1d6 to a maximum of 6d6.
