 Paralysation can be alleviated through the use of the spell [[Remove Paralysis (spell)|remove paralysis]], which instantly restores movement and function to the affected individual. Permanent paralysis is exceptionally rare and is typically the consequence of a debilitating [[Disease|disease]], rather than magical or combat-related causes.

-'''Paralysation''' is an attack form and an effect in which the body becomes partly or wholly incapable of movement. Only the muscles are affected, so that the victim's organs and breathing continues, though the latter can become extremely shallow.  If a character becomes paralysed in an environment where moving is required for survival, such as being underwater and being unable to surface and breathe, or helplessly being forced to inhale gas that will not sustain the body, then [[Death|death]] is automatic after a sufficient amount of time has passed.  When attacked by paralysation, a [[Saving Throws|saving throw]] is made on the paralysation column.

-Different forms of paralysation will affect creatures for a few [[Combat Round|combat rounds]]), for hours, for days or even permanently.
+Paralysation can vary in duration, lasting for a few [[Combat Round|combat rounds]], several hours, days or even indefinitely in some cases.
-Once the paralysis has passed, it requires a round for the character to acquire his or her senses before taking any action; during this period, the character's [[Armour Class|armour class]] is restored.  Further, if the victim has been paralysed for a period of 5 or combat rounds, he or she will suffer a -2 penalty [[Roll to Hit|to hit]] that lasts 1-3 rounds after the spell is used.
+Once the paralysis ends, the affected character requires a full round to regain their senses and orientation before taking any action. During this recovery period, the character's [[Armour Class|armour class]] returns to its normal state. Additionally, if the character was paralysed for five or more combat rounds, they will suffer a -2 penalty [[Roll to Hit|to hit]] for 1-3 rounds after regaining movement.
