Daily spell discussion: Abeyance

I am going to attempt to put a little more activity into this sub by doing a daily spell discussion of every spell in Pathfinder. Seeing as there are hundreds of spells, it should take a while.

I will be pulling spells alphabetically from d20pfsrd

Now, most of these threads will be lost in time, and many will not see activity because many spells are simply never used, or just suck.

These threads will share common questions to spark conversation and general interest.

Abeyance

1. Have you ever used this spell? If so, how did it go?
2. Why is this spell good/bad.
3. What are some creative uses for this spell?
