Soul Poisoning

Soul Poisoning is a debuff that Carl receives when he fills the soul bar on his Scavenger's Daughter Upgrade Patch but does not use the Soul Reaper Skill in a timely manner.

AI Description

Soul Poisoning.

The effects of this condition are being partially blocked by your Pauper’s ring of the Steadfast Emberus. This condition is worsening. This condition causes jolts of pain. This condition has additional effects that will soon be revealed if you don’t do something about it. You are suffering from a very minor case of stop-carrying-stored-souls-on-your-back. Seriously. Do you know why soul crystals explode when they get overloaded? Do you remember that whole thing on the previous floor when too many souls flowed through Sheol? And you’re just walking around, giving a piggyback ride to a bunch of corrupted souls stuck in something made out of fabric? Yeah, good luck with that. You better smush something soon, dumbass. Oh, and don’t try unequipping that jacket while your soul power is full. That won’t go well for you or anybody nearby.
