School transmutation; Level druid 4
CASTING
Casting Time 1 standard action
Components V, S
EFFECT
Range close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Target one animal
Duration 1 minute/level
Saving Throw Fortitude negates; Spell resistance yes
DESCRIPTION
By bringing forth the primeval ancestry of the target animal, you awaken a savage engine of destruction. The animal immediately gains the advanced creature simple template. It gains a +2 bonus on all rolls, including damage rolls and special ability DCs, a +4 bonus to AC and CMD, and +2 hit points per HD. The animal’s primal instincts take hold for the duration of this spell—if the animal knows tricks granted by the Handle Animal skill, it loses access to all of those tricks save for “attack.” This spell has no effect on animals that already have the advanced creature template.
Atavism, Mass
School transmutation; Level druid 8

DESCRIPTION
This spell functions as atavism, except it affects multiple creatures.
