Description¶
This spell creates a huge, disembodied fist that crushes the target and attempts to pin her to the ground. In the first round, the spell does 2d10 crushing damage, and the victim must save vs. Paralysis at -4 to avoid being held. In the second round, the victim must save vs. Paralysis at -2 or suffer 3d10 damage and be held again. In the third and final round, the victim can save vs. Paralysis with no penalty; if she fails, the hand does 4d10 damage and disappears.
