From HGWiki

Innate Level: 2

School: Necromancy

Descriptor(s): Negative

Component(s): Verbal, Somatic

Range: Touch

Save: Fortitude negates

Spell Resistance: Yes

Area of Effect/Target: Single

Duration: 1d6 + 2 Rounds / increases to 2d6 + 4 rounds at CL21, and 3d6 + 6 rounds at CL41.

Description: The caster's hand glows with an unearthly radiance. The target creature must make a fortitude save or become paralyzed. Creatures paralyzed by this spell emit a noxious cloud that applies a -2 penalty to skills, saving throws and damage rolls to all creatures within 5 feet.

Notes

The penalty to damage rolls only reduces magical damage. If the affected creature does not deal magical damage in its attacks, there will be no change to the damage dealt.
Spell resistance and a saving throw also apply to those entering the noxious cloud but that saving throw lacks the "negative" subtype.
The duration of the penalties is also d6 + 2 rounds, rolled independently of the duration of the cloud.
