Status Effects

Status effects are important and varied in Ironclaw and absolutely crucial to combat!

Silenced
A silenced character has no voice and can't make any kind of sound! They aren't allowed to Rally others and can't be noticed with the Listen skill.

In particular, a silenced character absolutely cannot use magic (including both preparation of magic weapons and their casting).

A silenced character can use the Recover action to try to resist the spell's effects... requiring a roll of Body, Speed, Mind, and Will vs 5. They must score three successes to end the effect. Otherwise, the effects of silencing end after five minutes.
