Wand of Hawthorn (4th-rank)

Carved from a hawthorn branch, this wand has a smooth handle, but the shaft remains covered in bark and long thorns. Polished red stones, arranged like a cluster of berries, decorate the pommel.

Effect You cast 4th-rank Oaken Resilience, and the target sprouts long thorns like those of a hawthorn tree. While Oaken Resilience lasts, any creature that hits the target with an unarmed Strike or otherwise touches it takes 2d4 piercing damage from the thorns. A creature that has engulfed or swallowed the target takes this damage as well at the start of each of the target's turns.

Craft Requirements Supply a casting of oaken resilience of the appropriate rank.
