Abilities: Difference between revisions

Line 22:

*'''Cleanse:''' An Ability that removes one or more Debuffs from a character, immediately ending any negative effects they impart. An Ability that Cleanses does not work when used on Self if the Debuff would prevent the Ability from being used in the first place. (Ex. If a character is Silenced, and it prevents them from using Powers, they cannot use one of their own Powers to Cleanse it. Someone else must Cleanse it for them.)

*'''Countered:''' If a characters’ Ability is Countered, the Ability is interrupted, and no damage or effects from the Ability take place. Additionally, the Countered Ability is forced on half its normal Cooldown.

*'''Stacking/Stack:''' An Ability that does not "Stack" cannot affect the same person more than once per period of its cooldown. If an Ability has a Cooldown of one hour, the same person can only be affected by that Ability, from any number of people, once per hour.

*'''OOC Consent:''' If an Ability or Special mentions OOC Consent, this is strictly something that can only be used if the player it is being used on consents whole-heartedly to its usage. They are not obligated to say yes, and attempting to coerce or convince someone to say yes after the fact can be considered harassment. OOC Consent can be revoked at any time, and is not a permanent agreement.

*'''Debuffs & Curses:''' Negative Effects have two distinct classifications, specified in the ability that applies them. Debuffs are the most common negative effect, imparting some detriment until they are removed, or expire. Curses are a rarer type of Debuff, as they cannot be cleansed or removed by any means, except their own. Curses will always describe how to remove them, and when they naturally expire on their own.
