\subsection{Ensnaring Strike}\label{ensnaring-strike}

\emph{1st---level conjuration}

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  \textbf{Casting Time:} 1 bonus action
\item
  \textbf{Range:} Self
\item
  \textbf{Components:} V
\item
  \textbf{Duration:} Concentration, up to 1 minute
\end{itemize}

The next time you hit a creature with a weapon attack before this spell
ends, a writhing mass of thorny vines appears at the point of impact,
and the target must succeed on a Strength saving throw or be restrained
by the magical vines until the spell ends. A Large or larger creature
has advantage on this saving throw. If the target succeeds on the save,
the vines shrivel away.

While restrained by this spell, the target takes 1d6 piercing damage at
the start of each of its turns. A creature restrained by the Vines or
one that can touch the creature can use its action to make a Strength
check against your spell save DC. On a success, the target is freed.

\textbf{At Higher Levels:} If you cast this spell using a spell slot of
2nd level or higher, the damage increases by 1d6 for each slot level
above 1st.
