Awaken Forest is a monster-only spell which angers all trees in line of sight. When the caster's foes are adjacent to a tree, they'll take irresistible damage. The damage from Awaken Forest checks both AC and EV. The first cast of Awaken Forest takes priority - e.g. if a friendly dryad uses Awaken Forest, hostile monsters can't turn the trees against you.

Damage from the trees depends on the monster's HD. When a spriggan druid casts Awaken Forest, its trees deal 11-22 damage (per 1.0 decaAut). The strength of a dryad's Awaken Forest depends on the spellpower of the Summon Forest it was created from.
