[Warpriest Question] Plant Blessing's Entangled Condition

[Alexander Augunas]

The Wapriest's Plant Blessing's minor ability states the following:

"Creeping Vines (minor): At 1st level, upon hitting with a melee attack, as a swift action you cause the creature you hit to sprout entangling vines that attempt to hold it in place, entangling it for 1 round (Reflex negates)."

This is actually somewhat vague on what the ability does, because the ability states "attempt to hold it in place" while the entangled condition says the following:

Entangled wrote:

The character is ensnared. Being entangled impedes movement, but does not entirely prevent it unless the bonds are anchored to an immobile object or tethered by an opposing force. An entangled creature moves at half speed, cannot run or charge, and takes a –2 penalty on all attack rolls and a –4 penalty to Dexterity. An entangled character who attempts to cast a spell must make a concentration check (DC 15 + spell level) or lose the spell.

So do the vines created by this ability count as "an opposing force?"

It sounds like the vines are attached to the creature you hit itself, as opposed to something else anchored. I would rule that wouldn't entirely prevent movement.
