Area: It affects approximately a fifteen inch shaft of wood of up to one inch diameter per level of the druid.

Area.example: Thus, at 1st level, a druid might be able to warp a hand axe handle, or four crossbow bolts,
at 5th level he or she could warp the shaft of a typical magic spear.

Effect: When this spell is cast the druid causes a volume of wood to bend && warp,
permanently destroying its straightness, form, and strength.
The range of a warp wood spell is 1" for each level of experience of the druid casting it.
Note that boards or planks can also be affected, causing a door to be sprung or a boat or ship to leak.

Spell.hold portal.DMG: Attempting to affect the wood of a magically held or wizard locked door is another matter.
The level of the druid is compared to the level of the magic-user,
and only if the latter is of lower level than the former will the spell have any chance of working.
For each level of experience greater than the magic-user, the druid has a 20% chance of warping dweomered wood.

Spell.wizard lock.DMG: See above.

Warp Wood: The PH states that there is
no ST against this spell, but
PCs would be aware that magickally
treated wood (eg, a wizard locked door) is
resistant to this spell in some cases.  The
DMG gives details.
(Imagine #30)
 

Wu Jen: This spell causes wood to bend and warp.
The area of effect is equal to 15 inches of 1 inch-diameter
wood per level, which is approximately a hand axe handle or four crossbow bolts. The spell may be used
against the boards of a ship or a bolted door, but if used on magical items or enchanted objects, it only succeeds
if the caster is a higher level than the spell on the door or object, and then only has a 20% chance of success per
level of difference.

Wu Jen.MC: A green twig, which is bent as the spell is cast.
