| - | The KNOCKOUT call represents stunning energy or poisons that cause loss of consciousness. If hit with a KNOCKOUT, a character falls over and becomes unconscious until the duration expires - you should count slowly up to the duration. While unconscious you cannot see, hear and perceive what is happening around you. If you are in the middle of a battle, then you should remain aware of your surroundings out of character and ensure that you are not trampled - you may move a short distance if you are in danger OOC. Some characters may have skills and abilities that may reduce the duration of the KNOCKOUT effect. If this reduces the time down to 0, then you should call NO EFFECT. | + | The KNOCKOUT call represents stunning energy or poisons that cause loss of consciousness.

| RESIST is called when a target of a power or call is unaffected by it thanks to a defensive ability they possess. Certain skills, abilities and equipment will allow you to resist certain specific calls even when they would otherwise affect you. You must roleplay bracing against the attack and call RESIST (you may also need to tear charges or similar - which you must do at the first available opportunity). | RESIST is called when a target of a power or call is unaffected by it thanks to a defensive ability they possess.

| + | ROOT represents immobilizing force, gravity alterations or other effects that prevent a character from moving around. Unlike the FREEZE call, which prevents any movement, ROOT only affects a character's legs and feet, so the rest of their body can act normally. ROOT makes it impossible for a character to move their feet for the duration of the call in seconds. They may otherwise move and fight normally. | ||
