This impressed spell requires strips of black fabric that have been soaked in a solution of hallucinogenic herbs or mushrooms. The caster waves the fabric about while thinking evil thoughts. To release the spell, the caster makes a rising motion with his hand, wiggling his fingers as he does so. Inky black tentacles will erupt from the ground in a 10-meter square area. The tentacles will grab anything in the area of effect, holding and squeezing it until the duration ends. The tentacles cannot be made to let go unless they are destroyed. To determine the Strength, Toughness, and Dexterity of the tentacles, Power Push the Effect Value and add 8. Power Push this number to get the skill adds the tentacles possess in unarmed combat and dodge.
