Paralysis is a recurring negative status effect in Grandia. It is one of the few status effects that have appeared in every game in the main series to date.
A paralysed character will be unable to make any actions until the affliction is removed. Paralysis will naturally wear off during battle and does not continue after battle. Common ways of removing Paralysis are by using a Panacea or casting the magic Halvah. It has a small chance of being inflicted if a character or enemy is hit by Lightning magic.
