4th-level conjuration

Classes: Druid, Ranger

Casting Time:1 action

Range:30 feet

Components:V, S, M (a sticky sapling)

Duration:Concentration, up to 1 minute

You summon a force of roots and earth that takes the vague shape of a humanoid. It rises in an adjacent space next to your target and attempts to grapple them. Any rolls to prevent or escape the grapple contest with your spell save DC. The roots wither and die if they take any fire damage. The roots cannot move outside of the space they arose from and can only grapple one target at a time. As a bonus action, you can attempt to have the roots grapple an adjacent target. When casting this spell using a higher level spell slot, you may summon an additional force of roots in a separate space next to a target for every spell slot level above the original.
