Status effects are combat effects that provide either a "buff", a positive effect, or a "debuff" with a negative effect to an enemy or character in combat. Most status effects last for one turn, and will state otherwise on the status effect description if not. Buffs provided by equipment or perks are permanent. Status effects can be applied through a number of means including certain actions on [[combat]] or [[equipment]] die, enemy attacks, and consumable [[Combat Items|combat items]]. Any status effects on an enemy or ally can be viewed by hovering the mouse over them in combat.
