PETRIFICATION

PETRIFICATION

Level:     M27                           Cost:      100 mana
Target:    one monster                   When:      non-combat or combat
Delay:     one combat round              Duration:  instantaneous

Effect:    This spell inflicts a large amount of earth damage on the
target. A successful save against the spell significantly reduces
the amount of damage that is inflicted.

The victim of a petrification spell will be rooted to the ground,
unable to leave the room.  Players who are petrified by mobs
may wish to seek out the aid of a companion who can cast 'remove
paralysis,' since it takes awhile for the spell's effects to
dissipate.

Usage:  cast 'petrification'
