Casting of this spell conjures crystal bands that wrap around the limbs and neck of the targeted creature, binding them into submission and causing the grapple effect. The caster must choose a creature that they can see within range. The target must succeed on a Strength saving throw, with disadvantage, or be grappled for the duration. At the end of each of its turns, the target can make another Strength saving throw. On a success, the spell ends and the Crystal Manacles shatter into dust.
The spell can effect creatures of Large to Tiny in size.
The Crystal Manacles of Binding have the same effect on ethereal and liquid creatures except they must succeed at a Wisdom saving throw to avoid the grapple effect.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 3rd level or higher, you can target one additional creature for each slot level above 2nd. The humanoids must be within 30 feet of each other when you target them.
