Rulings, clarifications, and reminders[]

The Corruption Condition (and some other effects) cause you to gain Eldritch token Eldritch tokens which are placed on your Investigator sheet. Eldritch tokens you have gained are not discarded unless an effect specifically allows you to spend or discard them; if the Corruption Condition is discarded, the Eldritch tokens stay on your Investigator sheet.[1]
