Buffs

Buffs are temporary changes to a character sheet that can be applied by actions. When a buff is applied, it is copied to the target character along with all of its children properties.

Buffs can either be manually removed from the stats page, or be removed by an action applying a buff remover property.

Variable freezing

When a buff is applied, all the calculations in the child properties have their variables frozen to their values at the time the buff is applied. You can prevent this behavior for the whole buff by using the don't freeze variables option, or on an individual variable reference by prefixing the variable with the keyword $target..

For example, if a character has 10 strength and 16 dexterity, and applies a buff with some child property containing the calculation $target.strength + dexterity the property's calculation will become strength + 16 when it is copied to the target character.
