Healing Paralysis

[Rokonin]

I don't have the any of the rulebooks with me, and I don't remember off hand, so: How do you recover/heal from paralysis?

 

[Scion]

Do you mean like this?

SRD:
Remove Paralysis
Conjuration (Healing)
Level: Clr 2, Pal 2
Components: V, S
Casting Time: 1 standard action
Range: Close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels)
Targets: Up to four creatures, no two of which can be more than 30 ft. apart
Duration: Instantaneous
Saving Throw: Will negates (harmless)
Spell Resistance: Yes (harmless)
You can free one or more creatures from the effects of any temporary paralysis or related magic, including a ghoul’s touch or a slow spell. If the spell is cast on one creature, the paralysis is negated. If cast on two creatures, each receives another save with a +4 resistance bonus against the effect that afflicts it. If cast on three or four creatures, each receives another save with a +2 resistance bonus.
The spell does not restore ability scores reduced by penalties, damage, or drain.

or are you looking for something else?

The Spell "Remove Paralysis" is the most common. Cleric 2nd.

 

[Rokonin]

Well, I meant besides that sorry for not saying that.

I mean, if that spell isn't available, what else would be usable, and how long would the paralysis last? (I'm pretty sure this would depend on where its coming from, but I want to make sure)

 

[Scion]

yeah, most paralysis have a duration attatched to them (I would say all, but wotc has a weird habit of not always including durations..)

 

[MerakSpielman]

If it doesn't include a duration, there might be a formula somewhere based on the HD of the monster to determine the duration of its abilities... If not, just say that the person is paralyzed for the rest of the combat. That's the way it generally workes out functionally anyway.

Sheer force of will.

 

[Tarril Wolfeye]

If the Paralysis doesn't have a duration mentioned it is permanent.
One permanent paralysis I can think of at the moment is used by the Lich.

 

[Scion]

of course, the lich description says it is permanent

I would say different that this... you are paralysed until someone removes the "thing" causing the paralysis... poison, spell, etc.

Unless it specifically says otherwise in the specific ability.
