Affliction

Characters in Darkest Dungeon are not the unwavering heroes of high fantasy to which you are accustomed. While they are certainly tough and capable fighters, they are also very human and you will need to manage their Mental Health as well as their Health. As such if their Stress Bar reaches a peak, they will respond emotionally to the horrors they encounter. They get stressed, develop phobias, proclivities, and other emotional baggage, which can be seen more in depth in the Affliction System.
