This spell turns an oak or similar tree into a protector or guardian. The spell can be cast on only a single tree at a time; while liveoak is in effect, you can't cast it again on another tree. The tree on which the spell is cast must be within 10 feet of your dwelling place, within a place sacred to you, or within 300 feet of something that you wish to guard or protect.
Liveoak must be cast on a healthy, Huge oak or similar tree. A triggering phrase of up to 15 words is placed on the targeted tree. The liveoak spell triggers the tree into animating as an awakened tree.
If liveoak is dispelled, the tree takes root immediately, wherever it happens to be. If released by you, the tree tries to return to its original location before taking root.
The awakened tree does what you ask of it but it must be given a purpose at the time of its animation. Such as protecting you and your companions, alerting you of creature approaching you while you rest and other similar actions.
