Paralyzation reduces the target's Dexterity so that it is incapable of physical action. The mage needs a small handful of sand. He flings several pinches at the targets eyes and each of the major joints. Compare the spell's effect value to the target's Dexterity. Reduce the target's Dexterity by the result points of the spell. If the target goes beyond the range of the spell, it regains normal movement and coordination, but the spell will resume if the target reenters the range of the spell.
