Status effects in The Blood of Dawnwalker
There are 248 status effects in The Blood of Dawnwalker, and every buff, debuff and temporary state in the game is one of them. The effects break down by source: 127 come from consumables, 101 from abilities, 9 are player states, 7 come from perks and 4 are combat states.
Most effects run for a fixed number of seconds, but the game also uses world time durations: some last until the end of the current day, others until the end of the next day, and a few are permanent until replaced. Periodic effects tick on their own interval, listed separately from the total duration — an effect running for 30 seconds with a 3 second period applies ten times.

Player states (9)
The nine player states change how Coen behaves rather than his numbers. Blood Craving is the clearest example: when vampiric health drops to a single segment Coen becomes hungry, and in that state he may lose control during a conversation and drain the person he is speaking to, friend or not.
Drinking blood also leaves a lasting effect behind. Feeding on a human grants a post-drinking state that raises clothing toughness, critical hit chance, claw damage and weapon damage, while feeding on an animal instead grants extra activation charges at the start of combat and faster passive charge regeneration.
