The Wet Moodle shows how wet a character and their clothing are. It has four levels, from Moist to Drenched.
Being wet causes trouble on several fronts. Wet clothes keep the body warm less well, so the character loses heat faster in cold weather. Discomfort rises with each level. At the higher levels, the risk of catching a cold climbs sharply. A wet character also cannot heal naturally. Drying off quickly after rain is a simple habit that prevents many problems.
Wet Moodle Levels
The moodle grows through these stages, from mild to worst.
| Level | Name |
|---|---|
| 1 | Moist |
| 2 | Wet |
| 3 | Soaking |
| 4 | Drenched |
Wet Moodle Causes
Rain is the usual cause. Walking or working outdoors in the rain soaks the character and their clothes over time.
Sweat can do it too. Hard exertion, exercise and heavy clothing in warm weather make the character sweat, and sweat dampens clothing.
The longer the exposure, the higher the level climbs. A short dash through rain leaves the character moist, while a long walk can leave them drenched.
Wet Moodle Effects
Moist is the first level. Its tooltip reads "Slightly damp from rain, sweat, or something else..." Heat loss rises in cold conditions. Discomfort rises a little. The character cannot heal naturally while moist.
Wet is the second level. The character is damp from rain or sweat. Heat loss rises further in the cold, and discomfort grows.
Soaking is the third level. Its tooltip warns of a possible cold. Heat loss rises again, and the chance of getting sick goes up.
Drenched is the last level. Its tooltip warns that a cold is coming. Heat loss is at its highest, and the risk of illness rises further. Discomfort is at its worst.
Wet clothes insulate poorly. A fully wet character with fully wet clothes is far more likely to catch a cold than a dry one.
How to Fix the Wet Moodle
Going indoors out of the rain lets the character dry off over time. Standing near a fire or stove dries them faster. A campfire or stove works well.
Towels dry the character quickly. A dish towel or bath towel both work.
An umbrella slows how fast the character gets wet. Holding one in either hand stops the moodle from going past the second level.
Changing into dry clothes also helps, since wet clothes keep the body cold.
Wet Moodle Traits
Outdoorsy and Resilient lower the chance of catching a cold from staying wet.
Notes
- Carry an umbrella in the rain to stay at Wet or below.
- Dry off with a towel or by a fire after a storm.
- A wet character cannot heal naturally.
- Soaking and Drenched sharply raise the risk of a cold.
- Wet clothes make getting cold much more likely.
