What is Blank?

An absence of feeling — the system has dampened sensation as a form of protection. Nothing registers as good or bad.

When you might feel blank

Blank is a specific form of numb, which itself is a type of frozen. You might experience this feeling in situations where frozen is present, particularly when the circumstances align with the nuances that define blank.
