|Description= A grease spell covers a solid surface with a layer of slippery grease. Any creature entering the area or caught in it when the spell is cast must make a successful Reflex save or slip, skid, and fall. Those that successfully save can move at half speed across the surface. However, those that remain in the area must each make a new saving throw every round to avoid falling and to be able to move. The DM should adjust saving throws by circumstance.

The spell can also be used to create a greasy coating on an item. Material objects not in use are always affected by this spell, while objects wielded or employed by creatures receive a Reflex saving throw to avoid the effect.

A churning field of oil and grease fills the target area, causing all within to either fall down or move at a reduced speed. A reflex save will prevent falling each round, but not the speed decrease.

Area of Effect fire spells that hit the Grease field will set it alight, doing 1d4 fire damage with no save for every two caster levels of the Grease layer (and not the lighter) to targets in a huge area of effect, and will clear the Grease.


NOTES

  • A creature with the freedom effect is immune both to the speed reduction and to being knocked down.
  • The effects of this spell do not accumulate when cast multiple times over the same area. The first grease effect applied is checked, and the rest are ignored for that round.
    • Grease fire effects may be applied multiple times to targets when multiple grease AoEs are ignited.
