Soothed

A gentle buff from Miriam that makes everything hurt a little less and weakens debuffs by ten percent.

Story so far

As Miriam Dom stroked Carl's hair in the back of the cart, he received the notification: 'You have been Soothed! Everything hurts a little less. Debuffs are 10% less effective.' It blunted the misery of Sore as Shit without removing it.

The effect fit her class of Shepherd and her motherly manner — a maternal comfort rendered as a mechanical buff, which Carl found weird and kinda nice at the same time.

Role

Comfort buff Miriam applies by physical touch, reducing debuff effectiveness.

Relationships

Miriam Dom — Applies it by stroking the recipient's hair.
