Every bane and boon in Untold Epoch — the conditions that can help or hinder a character.
| Name ↑ | Type ↕ | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Bleeding | Bane | "Leave it long enough and it does the work for them." |
| Blinded | Bane | "You stop fighting what you can see. You start fighting what you hear." |
| Bolster | Boon | "A fighter who hits hard is dangerous. One who hits harder than they have any right to is something else entirely." |
| Burning | Bane | "It finds everything — cloth, leather, hair. It's not in a hurry." |
| Charmed | Bane | "You're not under a spell. You just suddenly find them very reasonable." |
| Cover | Boon | "The arrow doesn't care how brave you are. The wall does its job regardless." |
| Dazed | Bane | "You know what you want to do. Getting there is the problem." |
| Deafened | Bane | "Everyone kept talking. You could see that much." |
| Ethereal | Boon | "Walls, blades, bodies — none of it applies anymore. The world you knew is still there. You're just not quite in it." |
| Fatigued | Bane | "Everything costs more than it should. And it keeps getting worse." |
| Fear | Bane | "The first thing it takes is your feet. Then your nerve. Then everything else." |
| Fortified | Boon | "It's not your strength taking that hit. Not yet. But yours is next." |
| Grappled | Bane | "You're not pinned. Not yet. But every big, clean motion just got a lot smaller." |
| Hidden | Boon | "Being unseen isn't the hard part. The hard part is staying that way once the fight starts." |
| Hobbled | Bane | "You're still moving. Just not fast enough." |
| Invisible | Boon | "The unsettling part isn't that they couldn't see you. It's that they were looking right at you." |
| Invulnerable | Boon | "Whatever it was that should have killed you there — it didn't. Couldn't. That particular door is closed." |
| Obscured | Boon | "You're still there. They just can't be sure of it." |
| Poisoned | Bane | "Good venom doesn't burn. It just waits." |
| Prone | Bane | "Getting up costs more than staying down. That's the problem." |
| Quickened | Boon | "Suddenly you have time you didn't have a moment ago. Use it before it runs out." |
| Regeneration | Boon | "The wound was there. Then it wasn't. Some things you don't get used to watching." |
| Resistance | Boon | "It hits. You feel it. It just doesn't go as deep as it should." |
| Restrained | Bane | "It doesn't matter how strong you are. You're not going anywhere." |
| Slowed | Bane | "Everything arrives late — your feet, your hands, your next swing." |
| Staggered | Bane | "One thing goes wrong and suddenly nothing goes right." |
| Static | Bane | "Lightning clings to your skin. Every motion brings agony." |
| Steadfast | Boon | "They hit you hard enough to knock anyone down. You're still standing. Some people find that unsettling." |
| Stunned | Bane | "Some hits don't just hurt. They take you somewhere else for a moment." |
| Unconscious | Bane | "You're not there anymore. Whatever happens next, you'll hear about it later." |
| Vulnerable | Bane | "There's always something that gets through. For you, right now, it's this." |
| Weaken | Bane | "You're hitting them. It's just not doing what it should." |
