Special

The area extends from both the tonguesnapper’s eyes, and this ability targets the first creature without cover on either side of the area.

Effect

If a target is already slowed, the potency increases by 1 for that target. A target restrained this way magically begins to turn to stone, and a target who ends two consecutive turns restrained this way is petrified. A target restrained this way or a creature adjacent to them can use a main action to cut encroaching stone from the target’s body, dealing 8 damage to the target that can’t be reduced in any way and ending this effect.
