Greater shadow tentacle

Greater shadow tentacle was an arcane abjuration spell that summoned a giant, rope-like tentacle made of existing shadows that fell upon an area.

Effects
The spell animated shadows from an existing anchor point and extend outward, up to 100' (30.5 m) and ensnare a target. The shadows would hold a creature down, preventing it from moving away or, if so desired, slowing it considerably. The affected creature could free itself from the shadow's hold with some considerable effort.

The shadow tentacles were not affected by natural or magical light.
