All abilities and magics (with a few exceptions) make use of a small set of common terms to explain the result they have on the player. These results are referred to as a ‘State’ or ‘States’. A player can have any number of different States simultaneously.

A State may have a duration, after which it expires. If a player would gain a State they are already affected by, the State’s duration should simply be adjusted to the new duration if it is longer than the current duration. A State without a duration continues until it is removed by some outside force or until a condition is met.

Unless otherwise noted, all States are removed when a player dies and cannot apply to dead players.

A State conferred by a class Trait, such as Immunity to Subdual, is always on and may not be removed by respawn, death, or any other means.

States imparted at the same time as a killing blow are considered to have taken effect prior to death.

List of States:
Cursed
Fragile
Frozen
Immune
Insubstantial
Out of Game
Stopped
Stunned
Suppressed
