When do conditions end if not explicitly specified? (aussie.zone)

I believe there are many such examples, but the particular one I’m thinking of right now is the Cold Spot haunt which states that a character is clumsy 1 if they critically fail. When would they stop being clumsy 1?

Restoration will reduce the length of clumsy, stupefied, and enfeebled (and drained at higher ranks). Dispel magic will remove magical effects, and neutralise poison/remove disease/curse, and restore senses as their names imply. That covers most conditions.

Resting will reduce some conditions as well, like drained. You could play it that a rest also reduces things like clumsy/stupefied/enfeebled.

It could also be that this specific haunt is just missing a duration or other text indicating how to remove the condition.

Ultimately it’s up to the GM to adjudicate this if they feel like something is amiss or unfairly punishing.
