You are disoriented and dizzy, reducing your accuracy, evasion, and spellcasting success rate.

Vertigo is a temporary status effect that decreases your evasion (-5 EV), spellcasting success, and accuracy (-5 to-hit[1]) until it wears off.

Vertigo can be caused when casting Alistair's Intoxication or as a result of being hit by a plum Killer Klown pie.

A potion of cancellation will remove the vertigo status (as well as many other status effects). Potions of curing have no effect.
