Duration: 1 minute

The target sinks into the ground, burdened by added weight. If you targeted a metal object, it sinks into the earthen surface on which it rests. If a creature could normally pick up or move the target, it must use an action to do so and make a Strength roll with 3 banes. On a success, the creature can move the target but drops it at the end of its turn.

If you target a metal creature or a creature wearing medium or heavy armor, it becomes held until it overcomes the effect with a success on a Strength roll. A creature also makes a Strength roll when it gains this affliction. On a failure, the target creature falls prone and can stand up only if it overcomes the affliction with a successful Strength roll.
