#### special abilities
### Petrification (Ex)
An engulfed creature must succeed on a DC 19 Fortitude save or instantly turn to stone. Success means the creature must save again each round until it either fails or is no longer engulfed in the creeping stone. The save DC is Constitution-based.
### Slow (Ex)
Though a creeping stone requires long-term contact to actually consume or petrify a victim, a simple touch allows the first stage of the process to begin. Any creature struck by the creeping stone (or that touches it with bare flesh) must succeed on a DC 13 Will save or be affected as though by a slow spell for 1d4 rounds. The save DC is Charisma-based and includes a +5 racial bonus.
