I think I mentioned this in a thread that sprung out of another thread about fanfiction meta or some such, and I got to thinking: it WOULD be kind of cool to have a list for 30kisses or a similar challenge community that dealt with status effects! You know, the ones from video games? Usually they're bad, but there are some good ones, too, and I had to use those to do some of the list.
This is a tentative list at the moment, and could go for some rearranging and better explanation, but what do you think for now? What would you think if I introduced it for
30kisses? (I'm afraid the way it currently is would only be appealing to those writing for video game fandoms, but I know there's a way to get it to work for all other fandoms--what I need is a good core theme. "Ailments" doesn't work since some are positive, but some people might think "good" status effects are actually "ailments" depending on who's got them or how they act, right? Anyway, check out the list.
1. Petrified (Stone)
2. Paralyzed
3. Incapacitated (Unconscious/KO/Dead)
4. Poisoned
5. Blind (Darkness)
6. Zombified
7. Asleep
8. Confused (Will attack friends or self)
9. Dazed/Dizzy (incapable of action for several moments)
10. Silenced
11. Cursed/Doomed (will die in a certain number of rounds)
12. Berserk (unable to control, but much more powerful)
13. Stopped (Unable to act)
14. Slow (super-slow to act)
15. Frozen
16. Charmed (recruited to the other side)
17. Frog/Toad (turned into a frog/toad and has reduced attack strength, defense and magical ability)
18. Mini (shrunk in physical size and power/abilities)
19. Itchy
20. Pointless (fail to gain anything from current situation)
21. Haste (does everything faster)
22. Reflect (magical everything bounces off and is sent back to the user)
23. Protect (increased resistance to physical damage)
24. Shell (increased resistance to magical damage)
25. Invincible
26. Pig (turned into a pig and has reduced attack strength, defense, and available magic, if any, to cast)
27. Ejected (removed from the current situation)
28. Aura (able to perform strong moves regardless of personal situation)
29. Double (able to do two things at once, or one thing repeated twice in quick succession)
30. Selfish (only thinks of him or herself: will randomly attack either enemies or allies)
