Some effects can damage your lungs. These cause you to take extra damage at the end of any combat where you win.
If you win the fight with only a couple HP left, and then the coughing damage causes your HP to go to zero, some effects have special results or messages. This still counts as winning the fight, and you get normal rewards.
| Effect | Damage | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Breathing Embers | ||
| Coughing Fit | 1-3 | (nothing special for running out of HP) |
| Dark Smoke | ||
| Toxic Spores | 1-3 | (nothing special for running out of HP) |
| Lungful of Spores | ?-4-? | Can give 10 energy of Rooted Spores sometimes |
| Rooted Spores | ?-5-15-? | (see below) |
| Spore Cloud | ? | (needs confirmation) |
| Degenerate Mists | 1-9? | (see below) |
Normal win message:
You choke and cough up some blood, taking another X damage internally.
Normal barely win message:
You slump to the ground, coughing up what you suspect is part of your lung. You should probably go rest.
Barely win message for having BOTH Lungful of Spores and Rooted Spores:
You choke and cough up some blood, taking another X damage internally. You slump to the ground, trying valiantly to cough up a lung. It doesn't work. All you get are fragments of bloody tissue and stringy bits of fungus. That can't be good.
You should definitely go rest.
You've gained 10 energy of Rooted Spores.
Barely win message for Degenerate Mists:
You choke and cough up some blood, taking another X damage internally. You slump to the ground, coughing up blood, tissue, and teeth. You'll need to rest before you can fulfill this gnawing hunger.
You've gained <same number as damage> energy of Ruptured Organs.
You learned a new Technique: Ghoul Bite (2-3)
Needs spading: The amount of damage is (might be?) proportional to the number of turns of the effect you have (for some effects only?).
No special message for barely winning for: Dark Smoke, Coughing Fit, others?
