Barkskin
--=== Help for Druid Command (barkskin) ===--
Syntax: Barkskin <off>
Barkskin
By means of this spell, a Druid is able to draw in some of the energy of his
surroundings, and cause it to toughen his skin until it is as tough as bark!
Unlike defensive spells of other classes, there is no duration associated with
this spell, instead, every hit chips away at the protection, until eventually
it becomes useless and cracks as is destroyed. However, if you left combat with
it still working, and then didn't get hit again for two hours, your barkskin
would still be in place. Unfortunately, since it is a physical hardening of the
skin, this spell does not endow the caster with any resistance to magical
attacks. Casters should beware of fire when barkskinned, for as well as bark's
toughness, you inherit its flammability!
Due to natural close association with trees, this spell is particularly
effective when cast by a Nymph.
You can remove your barkskin by typing 'barkskin off'.
