Rope of Entanglement: A rope of entanglement looks just like any other magical rope. Upon command, the rope lashes forward 20 feet or upward 10 feet to entangle up to eight man-sized creatures. For purposes of entanglement, creatures of different sizes are assigned values, as follows:


Size
Value

Tiny
1/3*

Small
1/2*

Medium
1

Large
3

Huge
4

Gigantic
8

* Round up.

Add the values of all creatures entangled to determine how many are affected by the rope. For example, the rope could entangle up to 24 Tiny creatures or 2 Huge creatures. Any combination of sizes is possible as long as the total value doesn't exceed eight.

The rope cannot be broken by sheer strength--it must be hit by an edged weapon. The rope is AC -2 and takes 22 points of damage to cut through; all damage must be inflicted by the same creature (not the one entangled). Damage under 22 points will repair itself in six turns. If a rope of entanglement is severed, it is destroyed.
