Spell Description
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 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.
