Svarta tentacles
Svarta tentacles is a level four conjuration spell with a range of ninety feet a duration of up to a minute an requires a piece of tentacle from either octopus or squid.
If ever you find yourself being pursued and happen to have a tentacle in your pocket, you can summon a twenty square foot area of squirming, ebony tentacles which will ensnare but not crush. When the spell ends, the appendages drift away as mist.
The spell produces a random number of tentacles from four to as much as twenty, all about three feet in length. The prehensile strength of each is over one hundred pounds. The one thing they lack from a living octopus are ink sacks.
