Wood Rot (Reversible)

This spell accelerates the decay of a ship's hull or deck structure. The wood thus affected crumbles away at a rate of 1 square ft. of surface area each round to a depth of 2 inches, effectively destroying hull integrity, a mast, or up to 10 square feet of 1-inch thick deck each round. All affected wood must be a continuous area; casting this spell more than once in one area cannot speed up the rot.

The material component is the caster's holy symbol.

The reverse of this spell, prevent wood rot, immediately negates a rot wood spell, or slows the effects of natural decay for one month. It does not reverse rotting effects that have already occurred (see cure rot). If a ship has been protected by prevent wood rot, then a wood rot spell negates this protection without other effect.
