Blind

Character may become blind if hit in the eyes with bashing damage more that 5 points and any cutting damage at the same time. Duration of blindness is based on amount of total damage, but limited at 1 turn in its minimum and 5 turns in its maximum. Blindness also can be gained rarely during telesickness.

Blindness for 10 turns will be "infected through eyes" in clouds of tear gas or thick tear gas with 4 and 6 strength, respectively. Also status can be gained when a flashbang detonates in 8-square radius or nearer in sight of the character, strength and duration of "infection" depend on distance ( [12 - distance] / 2 and 10 - distance).

While blind, a character losing his ability to specify items upon moving on a new square. Blind characters will bump into non-walkable obstacles, losing 100 movement points. Character will not be able auto-open doors (BUMP!) or Chat with NPCs (Who is there? I can't see anybody.)

Blindness can be cured with royal jelly.
