Description: A giant hand appears and attacks the target. If it hits and succeeds in a grapple check, the target is held fast for the duration of the spell and suffers 2d6+12 points of bludgeoning damage each round.

Notes

• Added in the expansion packs.
• The grapple check starts with a modified attack roll:

d20 + caster's ability modifier + caster level + 12 - 1.

If this roll meets or exceeds the target's armor class, then an actual grapple is attempted:

caster: d20 + ability modifier + caster level + 12 + 4 vs.
target: d20 + strength modifier + BAB + size modifier.

A tie means a successful grapple.

• This spell may be removed by casting freedom of movement, remove paralysis, restoration, greater restoration or any dispel spell; or by hitting the affected player with a holy avenger.
• If the target is immune to paralysis (such as from freedom) or mind-affecting spells, the hand still immobilize the target in place. The normal methods for removing the spell will no longer work except for dispel.
