Create Weapon (Ex) A wooden protector can, as a free action, use its body to fashion any simple or martial weapon composed almost entirely of wood (such as bows, quarterstaffs, and spears). Weapons created in this way cannot be sundered or disarmed. If the weapon created requires ammunition (such as bows), the wooden protector takes 1 point of damage each time the weapon is fired. This damage can be regenerated as normal. Created weapons can be reabsorbed as a free action or used to create a new weapon.

Grasp of Wood (Su) As a standard action, a wooden protector can focus its gaze on a single target within 30 feet. The target must make a DC 17 Reflex save or be encased in a web of wooden branches. Those who fail are entangled and cannot move, but can escape with a successful DC 17 Strength or Escape Artist check. The branches last for 1d6 rounds before becoming brittle and breaking. The DC is Strength-based.

Natural Movement (Ex) A wooden protector may move through any sort of undergrowth at its normal speed without taking damage or suffering any other impairment. This ability extends to magically manipulated undergrowth such as entangle and wall of thorns .

Regeneration (Su) Fire deals lethal damage to a wooden protector.
