Description¶
When a priest casts the Barkskin spell upon a creature, its skin becomes as tough as bark, improving its base Armor Class to AC 6 plus 1 AC for every four levels of the priest: Armor Class 5 at 4th level, Armor Class 4 at 8th, and so on. In addition, saving throw rolls vs. all attack forms except magic gain a +1 bonus. This spell can be placed on the caster or on any other creature he touches.
