With a long hissing whisper, you transform ordinary pieces of wood into various sorts of snakes that immediately attack your foes. As long as the snakes remain within sight, you can direct their actions telepathically as a free action. You can only apply this spell to wooden objects not in a creature’s possession or not part of a larger structure or plant. Each time you cast this spell you can create a number of snakes equal to your caster level. More powerful snakes take up more than one of your available total, as noted below.
| Snake variety | Stick required | Counts as how many snakes? |
|---|---|---|
| Viper | a stick or piece of firewood | 1 |
| Rattlesnake | a rod or small tree branch branch | 2 |
| Tree snake | a staff or large tree branch | 3 |
| King cobra | a log or pile of debris | 4 |
| Anaconda | a fallen tree or a large pile of debris | 5 |
Material Component: A knife suitable for whittling.
