Skill Rules & Full Description
Spell Verbal: "I Create a Magical Seal That Will Cause ...Imprisonment"
Cost: 9 Power Points • Duration: 5 minutes
- The target character is completely immobilized; they cannot move or speak. They are surrounded by a glowing, skin tight magical prison that protects them from all attacks, spells, or damage until the spell wears off. An Imprisoned character cannot be picked up or moved from the spot where the spell hit them. If the spell affects the character while they are not touching the ground – jumping in mid air, swimming, brachiating, being carried, in a tree, etc. – the character is immediately dropped to the ground under them when the spell hits.
- The Imprisonment spell is not affected by the Dispel Magic or Destroy Magic spells. The effects of alchemical items cannot pass through an Imprisonment. If you cast an Imprisonment on yourself then you cannot remove it; you must wait until the 5 minutes elapse.
- A target is still affected by the Hypnosis skill and other charm like gaze attacks. The Total Power skill will pierce through an Imprisonment, even if the original spell was cast with Total Power.
- There is a visible effect to this spell, and it is obvious to any one looking if the character is free or not.
