Vengeful Roots (5e Spell)
The ground in a 20-foot radius centered on a point within range causes foliage and roots to grab and strangles foes. The area becomes difficult terrain for the duration. For the duration, any creature which starts in the affected area or enters it on its turn make a Strength save. On a failed save, a creature becomes restrained for the duration, and takes 2d6 piercing damage now and at the beginning of each of its turns while it remains so restrained. Any creature affected by this spell can use its action to make a new Strength save, freeing itself on a success.
