Petrified

Condition Severity: Strong

   You have been turned to stone, frozen solid, or otherwise transformed into an inanimate solid.

Effects

• You take a -8 penalty to Reflex saves.
• You cannot take any actions, except some free actions (such as saving throws).
• You cannot speak.
• You stop aging and will never die. You are aware of your surroundings, but unable to interact with them in any way.
• If your petrified body is cracked or broken, but the broken pieces are joined with your body as you are returned to flesh, you are unharmed.

• If, however, your body is incomplete when returned to flesh, you gain the Maimed condition.

• A petrified creature typically weighs four times as much as the creature's normal weight.

Ended By

If the ability, trap, or effect description includes specific directions for how the condition is ended, then that is the primary means of ending this condition. In many cases, it is the only way to end the condition. If nothing is specifically listed for ending the condition, then the following methods can be used to end it, instead:

• In addition to the usual magical cures (e.g. a Greater Restoration spell, a Limited Wish spell, or a Wish spell, or an ability which emulates one of these effects), Petrified can also be cured with a Stone to Flesh spell.
• You can make an Escape Artist roll against the Maneuver Defense of the creature who inflicted this status. If you make this roll, you shake off the condition after 2d6 days have passed. If there is no creature involved, the DC is the Maneuver Defense of a generic creature of the CR of the effect.
• If not cleared, the Petrified condition will never expire on its own.
