Effect: Bigby's Crushing Hand causes the appearance of a huge disembodied hand which is similar to Bigby's Forceful Hand and
Bigby's Clenched Fist (qq.v.).

The Crushing Hand is under the mental control of the spell caster,
and he || she can cause it to grasp and squeeze an opponent.

Damage from this constriction depends on the number of rounds it acts upon the victim:
 

1st round	1-10 hit points
2nd & 3rd rounds	2-20 hit points
4th & beyond	4-40 hit points

The Hand can sustain hit points equal to those of the magic-user who created it before being dispelled.

MC: A glove of snake skin and the shell of an egg.


Bigby's crushing hand grabs a beholder.
