Causes the target's metal armor to swell and stiffen, bestowing slow and an inability to change out of that armor over the duration. Should target attack whether from melee or ranged, they suffer 1d4 crushing damage per round which they attack. If slow is cured on target, the spell ends. Will not affect a target wearing metal anywhere than the chest slot. If caster has spell focus: transmutation, instead deals 1d6 crushing damage per round which they attack.
