| * **Losing an Eye**, or vision from that eye, sucks. The loss of depth perception comes with a -2 penalty to Attack Skill and Defence Skill, and a -3 penalty to Precision. This stacks, but only as many times as the person has eyes; once they are out of eyes, they are Blind. If a creature has additional eyes for some reason, they can't possibly lose more stats from missing eyes than what they would lack through Blindness. | * **Losing an Eye**, or vision from that eye, sucks.

| * Speaking of, __**Blindness**__ from either brain damage or an unfortunate strike across the face comes with a -9 penalty to Attack Skill, Defence Skill, and Precision. A Blind mage can still engage in magical [[Research]], somehow, but certain magic is forbidden to them; ??The Eyes of God??, for example. | * Speaking of, __**Blindness**__ from either brain damage or an unfortunate strike across the face comes with a -9 penalty to Attack Skill, Defence Skill, and Precision.

| * **Muteness** from brain damage (or a damaged tongue) reduces all of a commander's Leadership scores by 75%, and applies a negative "pathboost" penalty to each of their paths; this "boost" is half of their skill in each path, rounded up. If the ability to speak is restored, the old magic skill is restored. | * **Muteness** from brain damage (or a damaged tongue) reduces all of a commander's Leadership scores by 75%, and applies a negative "pathboost" penalty to each of their [[magic]] paths; this "boost" is half of their skill in each path, rounded up.

| * __**Dementia**__, or absentmindedness, weakens the subject's mind and their connection to things as they are. The demented fellow has a -2 penalty to [[Magic Resistance]], both their Leadership and their Research ability **reduced by 50%** (indicating time wasted staring at nothing), and occasionally waste their time in battle to stare at nothing. | * __**Dementia**__, or absentmindedness, weakens the subject's mind and their connection to things as they are.

| * To be "__**Feebleminded**__" is to suffer either serious brain damage or a severe cut in one's sense of self, such that **spellcasting is impossible**. Becoming feebleminded also breaks whatever Global Enchantments or Battlefield Enchantments you were upholding. Other effects include -5 Magic Resistance and -1 penalties to Attack Skill, Defence Skill, and Precision. | * To be "__**Feebleminded**__" is to suffer either serious brain damage or a severe cut in one's sense of self, such that **spellcasting is impossible**.

| * A "**Never Healing Wound**" reduces maximum HP by **20%**, since healing magic and Regeneration can't fix it. Likewise, this makes future Afflictions 25% more likely to occur. | * A "**Never Healing Wound**" reduces maximum HP by **20%**, since healing magic and Regeneration can't fix it.

| * {{:abilities:disease.png?nolink }} __**Disease**__ from an infected wound is a horrifying fate, one that acts slowly but catches rather quickly in battle. The body becomes fixated on trying to fight the Disease, and thus **does not heal outside of battle**, though healing magic and Regeneration work during the heart-pounding thrill of combat. Every month, a diseased being slowly withers away, **losing HP** (though not //maximum// HP, fortunately) equal to 10% of their max. Lastly, **new Afflictions may form** each turn on Diseased units. You'll be happy to know that units in Dominions are very good at quarantining; Disease never spreads between units. | * {{:abilities:disease.png?nolink }} __**Disease**__ from an infected wound is a horrifying fate, one that acts slowly but catches rather quickly in battle.

| * Units who are [[old-age|old]] have a chance to get Diseased at the start of the last month of the year (Turn 11, and every 12th turn after that). The chance of this happening increases with {{:misc:scales:death.png?15&nolink}}[[Scales|Death scales]] in their province, and decreases with Growth scales. | * Units who are [[old-age|old]] have a chance to get Diseased at the start of the eleventh month of the year (Turn 10, and every 12th turn after that).
