This spell enables the caster to charm a healthy oak tree (or other type if
the DM allows) to cause it to serve as a protector. The spell can be cast on a
single tree at a time. While a liveoak spell cast by a particular caster is in effect, he cannot cast another such
spell. The tree upon which the spell is cast must be within 10 feet of the
caster’s dwelling place, within a place sacred to the caster, or within 100 yards of
something that the caster wishes to guard or protect.


The liveoak spell can be cast upon a healthy tree of small, medium, or large size,
according to desire and availability. A triggering phrase of up to maximum of one
word per level of the spellcaster is then placed upon the targeted oak. For
instance, “Attack any persons who come near without first saying sacred mistletoe” is an 11-word trigger phrase that could be used by a caster of 11th level or
higher casting the spell. The liveoak spell triggers the tree into animating as a treant of equivalent size, an
Armor Class of 0 and with two attacks per round, but with only a 30-feet-per-round
movement rate.

A tree enchanted by this spell radiates a magical aura (if checked for), and
can be returned to normal by a successful casting of a dispel magic spell, or upon the desire of the caster who enchanted it. If dispelled, the
tree takes root immediately. If released by the caster, it tries to return to
its original location before taking root. Damage to the tree can be healed with a plant growth spell, which restores 3d4 points of damage. A plant growth spell used in this fashion does not increase the size or hit points of the
liveoak beyond the original value.


The caster needs his holy symbol to cast this spell.
