Breath

| You are catching your breath, and are unable to use your innate breath ability until the status expires. |
Breath is a status effect which prevents the use of breath- or spit- based attacks for its duration. It acts as a cooldown timer for these abilities, but it does not impact spells or any other type of ability.
The following player abilities cause and are affected by Breath:
- Draconian breath attacks from being an XL 7 Draconian
- The Fire Breath attack from being in Dragon Form
- The Spit Poison attack from being a Naga
For players, Breath usually lasts for 1 + 1d10 + 1d(30 - XL) turns.[1] For Spit Poison, the cooldown is 3-7 turns.[2]
Monsters may also gain the Breath status; any spell with the breath flag is subject to a Breath cooldown. Examples of monsters with breath spells include dragons and ironbound convokers. For monsters, Breath always lasts for 1-5 turns.[3]
