Hands of Undeath (3.5e Spell)
Humanoid hands burst forth from the ground, grabbing at anything that gets near them. This spell affects 1 five foot square and an additional five foot square per two caster levels. Any creature that enters the five foot square must make a reflex save or be entangled. On additional turns, they must make a DC 20 Strength check to break free. If the Reflex save is passed, then the square is treated as difficult terrain. However, each round they remain in the affected squares, they must make another Reflex save.
