WARNING: This is a player-visible page!
======Afflictions=======

  * Afflictions are permanent negative effects.
  * Afflictions have a type: Body or Soul.
  * Afflictions have a potency: Feeble, Strong, Severe or Chronic.
  * Afflictions are normally gained via taking the CURSE call. 

=====Potency======

  * The potency of an affliction roughly determines how easy or difficult it is to remove.
  * Afflictions of the body are generally easier to remove than afflictions of the soul. 
  * The potency of an affliction does not determine the severity of its effect.
  * Some abilities may cause afflictions to be treated as greater or lesser than their original potency.
     * In such cases, these abilities can only shift the potency one rank higher or lower from their original potency.
     * It is impossible to make a chronic affliction more potent or a feeble affliction less potent.

=====Curing Afflictions=====

  * The following abilities can be used to cure afflictions.
  * Abilities which can cure more potent afflictions can always be used to cure less potent afflictions.\\
  * Sometimes, as in the case of Weavers or Paladins, the nature of the plane or the purview of the Muse must be something appropriate to the situation at hand.
