Binding of the Earth Spirit

Golem Heart (Strike) [Earth]
Level:	3
Prerequisite:	Need one Golem Heart maneuver, Golem Heart Focus
Initiation Action:	Standard Action
Range:	Melee Attack
Target:	One Creature
Duration:	1 round/level
Saving Throw:	Fortitude partial

You bind an earth elemental essence to your weapon, and then force it into the body of your victim, who has unmoving earth bound to their bodies, leaving them encased in rock.

As a standard action you make a melee attack, and the target must make a Fortitude save DC 13 + your Strength modifier. If they fail, they are petrified as if affected by flesh to stone for 1 round/level. They may attempt to break free as a full-round action and succeeding on another Fortitude save, with a -2 penalty to their saving throw. Otherwise it lasts until the duration is up. Succeeding on the initial saving throw negates the petrification, but not the damage.

Against constructs (but not living constructs) they are instead dazed for 1 round.

This maneuver is a supernatural ability, though once petrification occurs the effect is extraordinary.
