Notes

• The target must fail four  Saving throws in total in order to turn to stone. Each turn the target fails a saving throw, it progresses to a new stage of the Flesh to Stone debuff, all of which are identical in effect to  Restrained:
  •  Flesh to Stone: Restrained Stage 1: Affected entity cannot move as its body begins to petrify over the course of 3 turns.
  •  Flesh to Stone: Restrained Stage 2: Affected entity cannot move as its body progresses toward petrification.
  •  Flesh to Stone: Restrained Stage 3: Affected entity cannot move as its body enters the final bone-stiffening stages of petrification.
  • On the fourth turn, the target becomes  Petrified.
• This spell can be cast on a creature without provoking hostilities during the four petrification saving throws. However, once the creature has turned to stone or succeeded a saving throw, its nearby allies turn hostile and / or a guard response is provoked.

Bugs

• Despite the description stating the effect is 'temporary,' petrification from this spell is indeed permanent until the target is cured by  Basilisk Oil or a spell such as  Greater Restoration.
• Through use of a khn function named HasFleshToSToneCheck(), Flesh to Stone and  Flesh to Gold should not be castable on a target which is already afflicted with either of these two spells. However, this function only includes checks for the Flesh to Stone conditions, and as such Flesh to Stone can be cast on a creature already afflicted with Flesh to Gold.
