Elemental Effect: Blindness

Blind (chance, rounds): If a natural roll higher than the chance parameter is rolled on an attack with blindness, the target is blind. Blindness lasts as many rounds as the rounds parameter, and causes the target a miss chance of 10 greater than normal. If a target is already blindness, add on the rounds parameter to the current number of rounds they must wait for it to expire.
