A long sliver of wood flies from your outstretched hand, piercing a single target as a ranged attack. On a hit, the thorn deals 1d6 piercing damage per caster level (max 5d6). A creature struck begins bleeding for 1 point of damage each round. The bleeding can be stopped as normal with a DC 15 Heal check or the application of any effect that restores hit points. At 3rd caster level, the bleed damage increases to 1d4, and at 5th caster level the bleeding increases to 1d6.
