Author's Notes

Version 2.0 will have support for up to eight enemies and four player characters, as well as (maybe) player character immunities and resistances.
When copying and pasting the system, make sure you get everything. This system uses 1 switch, 5 variables, 1 common event, 1 battle event (in the Ghost*3 troop), 2 states, 1 skill, 6 animations, and 1 animation graphic.
To change the amount of turns for Doom to take, go to the common event. Change every control variable command that has "= 5" on the end to the number of turns it should take.
There are some issues with the battle event activating early. If anyone knows how to fix this, I would very much appreciate knowing how as well.

Instead of having =5 several times in the event, you could set a variable to 5 right at the beginning, then change those commands to =[variable]. Then if you wanted to change it from 5 to more (or less) turns, you just need to change it in one spot :)

I could, but it wouldn't work. Setting all the variables to 5 at the beginning would mean that you're setting all of them to 5 every time you use the skill, resetting the counters for the enemies. Half of the "=5" commands are for whether the enemy has Doom inflicted, and the other half are for when the system temporarily uses the variable for a 50/50 chance condition.
