Adventurers, while industrious, sometimes have periods of laziness. In that case, they turn to passive damage! Does damage without the adventurer having to lift a finger! This damage is broken up into Extra Attacks and Stinging Damage. Familiars are listed comprehensively in a separate page, the Mad Hatrack, and the Fancypants Scarecrow article. Poison is a special type of damage caused by certain items and familiars, and is covered on the page for Poison Damage. As a general rule, decaying effects do initial damage which decays in successive combat rounds, and can stack with other decaying effects.
