Currently no way to create overtime effect #64

Need an abstract way to add overtime effects, such as buffs or damage.

I wonder if the overtime stuff is best held on the ability or the effect end... Stuff to think about.

Yeah, I was trying to think of a clean logical way. I was thinking of creating a way for a character to store active over time effects, and those would be pushed on to the character at the time of activating the effect. Then I was hoping to subscribe to turns events, and check the lifetime of the event and delete itself from the character attributes when lifetime finished.
