Spell De-buffs


Some spells have bonus effects that may have a lasting effect on an afflicted resonator. These are not permanent and fade away after a long rest, however they're debilitating enough in combat that Maestros look for ways to avoid or remove these de-buffs should they occur. There are some spells that block these de-buffs, or remove them if they're already inflicted

The tuner will inform the maestro if their resonator is afflicted with a de-buff.

Physical de-buffs - These affect the resonators actual body and last until removed or the resonator gets a chance to take a long rest.
