In Castles & Canaries, all characters require light to see. Light is measured in levels. Each level of light is described below.
Bright light allows a character to see normally. Bright light is usually provided by a torch, lantern, or other light source.
Dim light allows a character to see, but just barely. It is difficult to make out finer details or colors in dim light. Dim light is usually provided by moonlight or a distant light source.
Darkness is a complete absence of light. A character in darkness cannot see at all. Darkness is usually found in caves, dungeons, or other unlit areas. While in darkness, a character has the blinded condition.
