[Raven Bloodmoon]

Face of the Earth
Transmutation
Level: Drd 6
Components: V, DF
Range: Medium
Effect: a face froms from the ground below the target and swallows it.
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Reflex [see text]
Spell Resistance: No

The ground sinks into an image of a hairless, featureless face with a yawning mouth directly below the target. The bottom of this mouth drops away, swallowing the target before closing above him. As the face closes its mouth, it fades from the landscape, and the terrain returns to normal, as if nothing had happened.

Any target who fails his Reflex save is swallowed; those who make the Reflex save manage to sidestep the maw but have a 50% chance of tripping on a facial feature and falling prone.

A swallowed target falls 30 feet, taking damage accordingly, and is then buried alive. The target cannot breathe and may attempt to dig his way out either through the use of a Burrough speed or by making a series of Strength checks (DC same as Reflex DC). Every successful Strength check moves the target 5 feet. At the beginning of each round after being swalloed, a swallowed target takes 1d6 points of damage for every 5 ft. of ground above him. For example, the round after falling into the face of the earth, the target would take 6d6 points of damage. If he makes a successful Strength check and digs upward, he will only take 5d6 points of damage the following round.
