Meridian Injuries

A Meridian Injury is a lingering wound to your cultivation itself, distinct from Qi Deviation: where Qi Deviation is one timer from one cause, you can carry up to six Meridian Injuries at once, from three different causes, each recovering on its own wall-clock timer that keeps running while you are logged off.

/cultivation injuries reports every injury you currently carry — its severity, how long until it heals on its own, and a hint toward curing it early.

The Six Injuries

Every injury is rolled with its own severity and its own recovery time — worse rolls of the same injury simply cost more and take longer to heal.

What Inflicts One

Three sources, each drawing from its own pool of injuries — never all six from any one cause:

The Marrow-Cleansing Rite (洗髓)

v0.10.0 /cultivation cleanse is the first real cure rather than only a wait — a ritual, not a pill.

Pay Qi up front, then hold your composure through a scaling drain for the rite's full duration. Succeed, and your deepest carried injury — the worst one you have, decided the moment you begin — is cured outright. Fail the hold, and that same targeted injury deepens instead. It is a real risk, not a free undo, so it is worth attempting when an injury is genuinely costing you, not reflexively the moment one lands.

The Meridian-Mending Pill

A gentler option from Alchemy: a Meridian-Mending Pill shaves time off your deepest carried injury's recovery rather than curing it outright — no risk, no Qi cost, just a smaller step in the right direction.
