The icon for the Strength effect.
Strength is a Status Effect that allows a character to temporarily deal increased damage when using melee attacks. Each level adds three damage to the attack; unlike Enchantments, it stacks with critical hits.
Like all status effects, it can be removed by drinking Milk.
