Synopsis
cast 'stone curse' [<victim>]
Description
This spell temporarily displaces the molecules of the target's organic body and replaces them with elemental stone.
The effect can be quite horrific to endure and is known to affect some victims' sanity. When the process is complete the consciousness of the victim remains trapped within the stone form that his body has become and it can be quite maddening.
The victim cannot move or perform actions, while at the same time, is protected from any physical and magical attacks for the duration of the spell. To everyone else he will appear to have become a solid stone statue that resembles the previous victim.
While this spell is called a 'curse' it is too powerful to be reversed by a standard 'remove curse' spell. And since the target is impervious to all magic, it effectively cannot be dispelled through normal means.
