Statuses

Confused

A Confused creature often acts against their own interests.



At the start of a Confused creatures turn, roll a d4.

On a 1, the Confused creature takes their turn as normal. On a 2, the Confused creature cannot Move, but can still perform Actions. On a 3, the Confused creature can perform no Actions, but can still Move. On a 4, Zaldar takes a turn for the Confused creature, or you take a turn for Zaldar's Confused creature, depending on who caused the Confused state.

A Confused creature has two choices to resolve their state:

1. Spend 1 Action Point, and pass a Difficulty 10+ INT roll.

2. Spend 3 Action Points and 3 Mind Points.

A Confused creature that performs either of these on their turn has their Confused status removed. Confusion can also be resolved by artifacts, spells, or other interactions, as per Zaldar's discretion.

Dehydrated

A creature dependent on water will perish without replenishing themselves.



Do not add your DEX, CHA, or INT to any roll that involves it. A dehydrated creature may not Run, Jump, or Long Jump.

Diseased

Stricken with a severe illness, a Diseased creature wastes away until undead.



HP is cut in half at the end of every turn. If the HP being cut in half is odd, round up the HP that remains to the nearest whole number. If a Diseased character has 1 HP at the end of their turn, they are immediately set to Down. Contagious: if a DISEASED character scores melee damage against you, you become diseased. -2 CHA.

Down

A Down creature has suffered critical injuries and is mostly incapacitated.



Any character that is reduced to 0 HP or below becomes immediately Down. The character has sustained serious injuries and is struggling to stay conscious.

Place the figurine flat on its back to indicate it is Down. This also indicates that the character is Tripped, i.e. laying on the ground on its back in a prone position. A Tripped character always treats their Base Defense roll as if they rolled a 1.

A Down character is limited to 1 Move Point and 1 Action Point per turn, and cannot Stand Up.

A Down character may only spend 1 Action Point on their turn, preventing them from Attacking. Certain Actions may be prohibited while Down, as per Zaldar’s discrection.



Recovery

At the start of a Down character’s turn, at a cost of 0 Action Points, the player controlling the Down character rolls a d20 for that character’s Recovery roll.

If the result of the Recovery roll meets or exceeds that character’s Recovery attribute, the character is considered recovered. Their HP is set to 1, and while they are still Tripped, the number of Action Points and Move Points they may spend on their turn is restored to normal.

If the Down character rolls a 1 on their Recovery roll, that character immediately becomes Unconscious.

Certain spells, artifacts, and other conditions may affect a character’s Recovery roll.

Hungry

Do not add your STR to any roll that involves it.
