Some characters may have skills and abilities that may reduce the duration of the FREEZE effect. If this reduces the time down to 0, then you should call NO EFFECT. | The FREEZE call represents energy or toxic substances that cause instant but brief paralysis.

If you are in the middle of a battle, then you should remain aware of your surroundings out of character and ensure that you are not trampled - you may move a short distance if you are in danger OOC. Some characters may have skills and abilities that may reduce the duration of the KNOCKOUT effect.

| ROOT represents immobilizing force, gravity alterations or other effects that prevent a character from moving around. Unlike the FREEZE call, which prevents any movement, ROOT only affects a character's legs and feet, so the rest of their body can act normally. ROOT makes it impossible for a character to move their feet for the duration of the call in seconds. They may otherwise move and fight normally. | ROOT represents immobilizing force, gravity alterations or other effects that prevent a character from moving around.

| - | STRIKE represents attacks that deal more damage than would be expected. If it is delivered purely verbally, the STRIKE call deals a single point of damage to the location specified (if it does not specify a location, then assume that it hits the torso). If delivered by an attack, such as a weapon blow, projectile or dart hit, then it deals a point of damage after the damage from the attack. In most cases, an attack with the STRIKE call will just deal 2 points of damage to the struck location. | + | STRIKE represents attacks that deal more damage than would be expected.
