\subsection{Wall of Thorns}\label{wall-of-thorns}

\emph{orb-level conjuration}

\begin{itemize}
\tightlist
\item
  \textbf{Casting Time:} 1 action
\item
  \textbf{Range:} 120 feet
\item
  \textbf{Components:} V, S, M (a handful of thorns)
\item
  \textbf{Duration:} Concentration, up to 10 minutes
\end{itemize}

You create a wall of tough, pliable, tangled brush bristling with
needle---sharp thorns. The wall appears within range on a solid surface
and lasts for the duration. You choose to make the wall up to 60 feet
long, 10 feet high, and 5 feet thick or a circle that has a 20---foot
diameter and is up to 20 feet high and 5 feet thick. The wall blocks
line of sight.

When the wall appears, each creature within its area must make a
Dexterity saving throw. On a failed save, a creature takes 7d8 piercing
damage, or half as much damage on a successful save.

A creature can move through the wall, albeit slowly and painfully. For
every 1 foot a creature moves through the wall, it must spend 4 feet of
movement. Furthermore, the first time a creature enters the wall on a
turn or ends its turn there, the creature must make a Dexterity saving
throw. It takes 7d8 slashing damage on a failed save, or half as much
damage on a successful one.

\textbf{At Higher Levels:} When you cast this spell using a spell slot
of 7th level or higher, both types of damage increase by 1d8 for each
slot level above 6th.
