The subject becomes paralysed and freezes in place. It is aware and breathes normally but cannot take any physical actions, even speech. A winged creature who is paralysed cannot flap its wings and falls. A swimmer can't swim and may drown.
Restriction:
Choose one type of creature when you learn this spell. This spell only works on creatures of that type.
Heightened:
Each additional Power point increases the duration by 1 round. At each of the target creature's actions, it can choose to attempt another Will save to attempt to break free from the spell. This is a full-round action that does not provoke attacks of opportunity.
