Petrified

originally from d20 Pathfinder SRD with our thanks

Symptoms

A petrified character has been turned to stone and is considered unconscious. If a petrified character cracks or breaks, but the broken pieces are joined with the body as he returns to flesh, he is unharmed. If the character’s petrified body is incomplete when it returns to flesh, the body is likewise incomplete and there is some amount of permanent hit point loss and/or debilitation.

Prognosis

• Fatal if not reversed, cured, nullified, or otherwise corrected.
• Time spent in this condition seems to affect the difficulty of reversal. No known subjects have been saved from petrification after a period of more than five years.
