Sap (Final Fantasy V status)

Sap is a status in Final Fantasy V that causes the current HP of the target to drop by a marginal, absolute amount every interval. Stop nor casting Quick will not halt the erosion. The duration of sap depends on the attack setting it. Sap ends at the end of the battle. Sap is similar to Poison status in that they both deal passive damage to the afflicted.
