By means of this spell, one of the caster's hands temporarily becomes a wooden magical weapon. The extremity is able to strike creatures who can be hit only by magical weapons of +2 enchantment or less. The extremity gains no attack bonus, but its slightest touch does the same slashing (Type S) damage as a sickle: 1d4+1 points of damage vs. smaller than man-sized or man-sized creatures, Id4 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.
