The caster and target make a Contested Check - the caster uses [Cunning](Cunning.md), [Grace](Grace.md) or [Vigor](Vigor.md), and the target uses [Resilience](Resilience.md), [Tenacity](Tenacity.md) or [Willpower](Willpower.md). If the caster wins, the target is afflicted with Tier I [Petrified](Petrified.md). - **Spell Ascension** – For each point of Ascension, increase the Tier of the Petrified affliction by I. ## <font color="#5218fa">**Indigo**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md)* **Color Effect** – The caster may sacrifice Hit Points, [Mana](Mana.md), or a point of [Courage](Courage.md) equal to their [Spirit](Spirit.md). If they do, and the caster wins the check, the [Petrified](Petrified.md) [Affliction](Affliction.md) cannot be removed by any means for 1 round after it would normally end, the stone lingering a moment longer than it should. ## <font color="#0000ff">**Blue**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md)* **Color Effect** – If the caster wins the check, this spell may instead target a second enemy within 10 ft. of the first. ## <font color="#008000">**Green**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md), [Heal](Heal.md)* **Color Effect** – If the caster wins the check, moss and lichen immediately bloom across the petrified target. The caster heals Hit Points equal to their [Spirit](Spirit.md), and allies may use the petrified target as cover. ## <font color="#ffff00">**Yellow**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md), [Economy](Economy.md)* **Color Effect** – If the target was already moving this round when petrified, it immediately loses any remaining Action Points. ## <font color="#ffa500">**Orange**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md), [Empower](Empower.md)* **Color Effect** – If the target is below half Hit Points, this spell gains a bonus to the Contested Check equal to the caster's Ascension in this Spherum, and if the caster wins, the target is also afflicted with Tier I [Frightened](Frightened.md)/[Horror](Horror.md) once the [Petrified](Petrified.md) [Affliction](Affliction.md) ends, as their mind is conquered even after their body is freed. ## <font color="#ff0000">**Red**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md)* **Color Effect** – An ally may attempt this Contested Check in the caster's place, so long as they can see the target. If they succeed, the caster or that ally learns an ability that [Combat Acumen](Combat%20Acumen%20(Soldier).md) would reveal about the target. ## <font color="#ee82ee">**Violet**</font> **Keywords** - *[Polymorph](Polymorph%20Sphere.md), [Afflict](Afflict.md), [Depower](Depower.md), [Economy](Economy.md)* **Color Effect** – If the caster wins the check, the target loses all of their current [Mana](Mana.md), and cannot regain Mana for as long as they remain [Petrified](Petrified.md).
