This spell allows the priest to generate a disgusting spittle that can paralyze any creature it touches. The priest must make successful attack, and the creature is considered to be is at short range. Any creature struck must make a successful saving throw vs. spell or lose the use of the area struck (see the table below). The attack can be used but once, and the spells ends if not used within 5 rounds of the casting. All effects last 1d4+1 rounds. The DM might alter the hit location chart to account for creature facing or non-humanoid body type.

Notes: Granted by Iuz the Evil of the Grey-hawk setting.
