Petrify

Rank 6 — arcane, primal (concentrate, earth, manipulate)

Source: Pathfinder Player Core

Cast 2 actions
Components somatic, verbal
Range 120 feet
Targets 1 creature made of organic material
Duration varies
The target's body slowly turns into a stone statue. The target must attempt a Fortitude save. **Critical Success** The target is unaffected. **Success** The target is Slowed 1 for 1 round as stone begins to form on their body. **Failure** The target is slowed 1 and must attempt a Fortitude save at the end of each of its turns; this ongoing save has the incapacitation trait. On a failed save, the slowed condition increases by 1 (or 2 on a critical failure) as stone growths creep across their body. A successful save reduces the slowed condition by 1. When a creature becomes fully unable to act due to the slowed condition from petrify , the spell then ends in a flash of gray light, leaving the target Petrified permanently as they become a statue. The spell also ends if the slowed condition is removed, which causes the stone to break off harmlessly. **Critical Failure** As failure, but the target is initially Slowed 2.
