By means of this spell, one of the caster's hands temporarily becomes a wooden magical weapon. The extremity is able to strike all creatures who can be hit only by magical weapons. The extremity has a +2 attack bonus, and its slightest touch does slashing (Type S) damage as a sickle +2: 1d4+3 points of damage vs. smaller than man-sized or man-sized creatures, 1d4+2 points of damage vs. larger than man-sized creatures.

A druid may use the enchanted extremity to harvest mistletoe as though it were a gold or silver sickle.

Notes: Granted by Eldath. the Green Goddess of the Forgotten Realms setting.
