• Syntax: cast 'stoneskin' <target>
  • Level: 8
  • Class: Shaman
  • Save: Resil for no effect (on enemies)
            
By invoking the earth element's powers, the Shaman imbues the target's skin
with the toughness of stone. This unique spell provides formidable protection
against slashing and piercing attacks, causing such weapons to harmlessly
glance off the stone-like skin.

However, this added sturdiness comes with a certain vulnerability. The
stony skin is susceptible to powerful pounding attacks, as they can cause the
stone to crack and shatter. Furthermore, the weight of the stony skin slows down
the target's speed.

Buff: Resistance to slashing and piercing damage. Immune to bash.
Debuff: Susceptibility to pounding damage and +5 speed
Duration:  5 hours + ((level * 1 hour) / 4)
