Burrow (Priest Spell)

When the spell is cast, the priest's fingernails lengthen and become as hard as stone. For the du­ration of the spell, the caster can use these claws to burrow through earth, sand, clay, and gravel (but not solid rock), excavating with enough speed to provide a burrowing rate of 3, much like a badger or other burrowing mammal
In addition, the caster can use these claws as weapons. The priest can attack with both claws, each successful attack inflicting 1d4+1 points of damage, plus any Strength damage adjustment.
This spell ends early if subjected to a success­ful dispel magic, if the caster dies or by the caster's silent command.
The material components for this spell include the caster's holy symbol, a tuft of fur from a bur­rowing mammal, and a tiny replica of a shovel.
Notes: Granted by the gnome gods Segojan Earthcaller and Urdlen.
