Description: Even rangers and druids sometimes need a little assistance climbing. This simple spell eases difficult climbs on wooden surfaces, such as trees, towers or vines, even those that normally grant no purchase.

For as long as the caster concentrates, and desired portion of her skin sticks to wooden surfaces as though glued in place. The caster can change the locations so affected, for example to free one hand after the other for purposes of climbing. The spell makes climbing easier but slower because of the extra concentration required. Add +8 to the character’s Climb check. If the character moves at a leisurely pace (1/2 the normal climbing speed), no Concentration check is necessary. If the character is moving faster than that, make a Concentration check with every Climb check. Note that a single hand or foot does not have enough surface area to support a character’s entire weight by itself. If a character is foolish enough to try hanging from a ceiling or wall by one hand, their weight will tear the skin off their hand for 1d4 damage (plus any falling damage that might result). Material Component: Lichen or bracken.
