== Removing Obsessions ==
* Obsessions, before reaching 100%, can start reducing when a cultivators's Aim is set to Mind.
* After reaching 100%, a Shendao Miracle, Clean Mind can be used to clear them resulting in an .
* Xiandao cultivators lose all Obsessions upon reaching Demigod.
== Additional Mechanics ==
* Once an obsession is cleared 4 times, it is fully locked out and can never build again for Xiandao or Shendao Cultivators.
* Obsessions reduce mental state and do not give moodlets(which would add distress), making them useful for reducing mental state on a Shendao cultivator. 
* Obsessions require certain challenges to gainXiaWorld.GameDefine.ObsessionMindData, and can affect skills.
== Obsession Interface ==
They are found in the Basic Stats screen (or "Backgrounds")
They slowly build up over time as the conditions are fulfilled.
During this time, it's possible to start clearing them on Xiandao cultivators by setting them to "Mind". This takes some time, and a near-fully built obsession can take up to 5 days to clear. Though for the Hedonistic/Depressed/Anxious, they need to have stayed in that state for a full season and a half to reach that state, as 21600 seconds = 36 in-game days.
If the meter reaches "full", an obsession is locked in, or Acquired, and can no longer be cleared with the "Mind" setting. 
They increase the level (and level cap) of some magical skills, while reducing the level, and level cap of others.
An Acquired Obsession requires a Shendao cultivator to clear it with their Clean Mind Miracle. This can be useful though, as Obsession gems can be used to resurrect dead characters with their cultivation intact.
