Sigil of Binding is a level 3 Hexes spell which creates sigil traps, which when stepped on, stop movement for a short time.

Hexslingers start with this spell in their libraries.

Useful Info

Creates two sigils randomly within 2 tiles of the caster. They are considered traps, so they can only be placed on floor tiles; they cannot be placed on doors (even when open), shops, water, other traps, etc.

When a creature, including the player, steps on a sigil, they are trapped and cannot move. For monsters, after they are trapped, they gain Sprint (+20% movement speed) for a time afterwards. Players do not get the swift effect.

Against monsters, the binding lasts for 4 + power/12 - HD/4 to 7 + power/8 - HD/4 turns. The Sprint effect lasts twice as long as the binding. Against players, the binding lasts for 3 to 6 turns.

The sigils themselves last for 5 + pow/4 to 8 + pow/2 turns. You get a warning two turns before the sigils expire.
