Confusion

Spoiler Warning: This page contains spoilers which may affect your IVAN experience negatively

You feel quite happy.
Whoa! Somehow you don't manage to walk straight!

Confusion is a state caused by imbibing alcoholic drinks, walking through clouds of magic bubbles, or taking a really nasty blow to the head. Confusion will eventually wear off on its own - it cannot be removed by any artificial means.

Effects

• Random chance to move/attack in a different direction from the one intended by the player.
• Attempting to read a scroll may cause the spell to fail, wasting the scroll.
• Reading a holy book may cause the book to vanish without an Intelligence or Wisdom benefit and inflict a random status effect.
• Randomly causes hiccups.
  • This is a free action and has no adverse effects.

The world is boring again.
