1 standard action, 1 minute/level, touch
This spell causes a brushy beard of stiff iron to erupt from the face of a willing target. The ironbeard grants a +1 armor bonus to AC, and this bonus stacks with any armor worn by the creature. The ironbeard may also be used as a weapon equivalent to cold iron armor spikes. The ironbeard makes it difficult to speak, so any spellcasting with a verbal component has a 20% spell failure chance.
Target: creature touched

Although the Ironbeard spell draws its power from the Termagant star, and is often gifted by the Iron Sultan(a) to her-or-his followers, it is not an exclusively Termagan spell. So, while it is officially legal to know and use, it may attract suspicion from the authorities and could be considered evidence towards illegal worship of unsanctioned deities.
