Editing Darkness (status)

{{stub}}
'''Darkness''', also known as '''Blind''', '''Blinded''', '''Blindess''', or '''Burn''',  is a recurring status aliment in the [[Mana (series)|''Mana'']] series.

==Effect==
The victim's vision goes completely dark or is otherwise occluded, making the field harder to see and thus potentially easier for enemies to attack without fear of pushback. When isolated to individual units, their attacks may miss their intended targets.

==History==
===''Final Fantasy Adventure/Adventures of Mana''===
[[File:Dark status FFA screenshot.webp|thumb|Dark status]]
In ''Final Fantasy Adventure'' darkness (rendered ''DARK'' on the screen) makes [[Sumo]] blind, rendering the whole room he is in pitch back for a short while. During this time, players can barely see monsters and obstacles. This can be restored by the Magic of [[Heal (magic)|Heal]] or [[Eye Drop]] potion.

In ''Adventures of Mana'', '''Blinded''' makes [[Sumo]]'s field of vision limited to a small circle around him, the rest of the screen pitch black for around 15 to 20 seconds. The names of the restoratives has stayed the same.

Like other status aliments, darkness can only be inflicted by enemies. Below is a list of all monsters who can potentially blind Sumo.
*[[Air Element]]
*[[Blood Owl]]
*[[Dark Stalker]]
*[[Demon]]
*[[Denden]]
*[[Earth Element]]
*[[Gas Cloud]]
*[[Ghost (enemy)|Ghost]]
*[[Mimic]]
*[[Molebear]]
*[[Porcupine]]
*[[Red Wisp]]
*[[Shadow Zero]]

===''Trials of Mana HD''===
A Darkness effect has been added to [[Burning (status)|Burning]]. If the currently-controlled character is hit with a fire attack or runs into a hazard while exploring the [[Fiery Gorge]], the smoke gives the character tunnel vision.
