Flavor

The subject's skin roughens and toughens like tree bark, turning aside blows and bracing against magic.

Mechanics

The touched creature's skin hardens for 4 + 1 round/, improving base AC (and granting a small bonus to vs. non-spell attacks). Doesn't stack with magical armor's enchantment in the usual way. : a handful of oak bark and the holy symbol.
