Injuries and Curses

Injuries and Curses, also known as Status Effects, are afflictions added to the Player Character from a variety of sources.

Injuries

Injuries are bodily damage caused by physical altercations. They're characterized by the ability to be healed via the Doctor's Office, with the cost depending on the severity of the affliction: 1 Fund for Minor and 2 Funds for Major.

Minor injuries can be healed with a Bandage, while Major injuries can be healed with a Medical Kit.

Curses

Curses are often psychological traumas or eldritch curses inflicted upon the player, primarily through events and by wishing at the Witch's Tree. There are currently only 3 ways to remove curses: using the Onyx Medallion given from Ayaka, using the Old Coin given from the Curious Birthmark background, and the Stuffed Toy from Restless Rumors of a Residential Recluse. Multiple copies of a curse can occur simultaneously.
