Spell Resistance: No

This gruesome spell causes your own spine to lengthen considerably, thrusting up from the base of your skull to become a prehensile weapon, or limb-like tendril, under your control. Each round, in addition to whatever action your would normally make, the spine tendril can make either an "unarmed" disarm or grapple attack with a reach of 10 feet, neither of which draws an attack of opportunity. It is treated as a Medium-sized attack and has an attack bonus of 10 + your caster level. Its Strength score is your Strength +5. While grappling, once it achieves a hold, the spine tendril can inflict 1d6 points of damage plus its Strength modifier, if any.
