Artwork for Earth Bind

Spell

Earth Bind

Created by Bobbyx

When you cast this spell, the ground beneath your target erupts with primal force as thick tendrils of compacted earth and writhing mud surge forth to ensnare them. Multiple serpentine chains materialize from the soil, coiling around the target's limbs and torso with tremendous force. These earthen restraints constrict with the weight of stone, severely hampering the target's ability to move freely or escape. The bindings are surprisingly resilient, formed from magically reinforced soil that hardens like concrete around anything they touch. A creature caught in Earth Bind finds itself immobilized, unable to take any movement actions as long as the spell persists. The spell's duration depends on the caster's concentration, during which the chains remain taut and unyielding. Only by breaking free from these supernatural bonds or dispelling the magic can the target hope to regain their mobility.
