Woodiron

This is a specialized version of enchanted weapon that works only on wooden weapons. When the spell is cast on a wooden weapon, that weapon becomes as hard as its iron counterparts on other fantasy worlds, with no penalties to attack or damage, Weapons normally made of wood, such as the club and quarterstaff, are granted a bonus of +1 to both attack and damage rolls. Only one spell can be cast on a weapon at a time; the effects are not cumulative, even with normal wooden weapons like those mentioned above. Wooden shields are also affected by this spell, becoming +1 for defensive purposes. Both weapons and shields are fireproof for the spell's duration.

Missiles of wood enchanted in this manner lose their dweomer as soon as they hit a target; otherwise, the spell lasts for its full duration. It is also used in the manufacture of regular magical weapons and shields.

The material component is a chip of the bronze-hard agafari wood of Nibenay.

Notes: Very rare for priests of the Dark Sun setting. (Updated from Dragon magazine.) Optionally known by priests from savage settings.
