Damage Types

Resistance & Susceptibility Descriptors:
insignificantly     partially       quite               outstandingly
faintly             kind of         substantially       extraordinarily
hardly              somewhat        very                completely
barely              moderately      exceedingly
scarcely            reasonably      exceptionally
slightly            rather          extremely

The following damage types are relatively common in our realm:
air             chopping        fire            pure divine
biological      cold            mental          slicing
blasting        cursed          piercing        water
blunt           earth           poison          whipping
caustic         electric        pure arcane

These damage types may occasionally be encountered, but they are more rare:
leeching        pressure        stasis
mind control    sonic

These types are hardly (if ever) used.  At some point in the future some
of them may be repurposed for some new type of damage.
antimagic       natural         portal
falling         polymorph       radiant

A field guide to exotic damage types

Pure Arcane: Disintegrate, desiccate, and magic missile do this.
Pure Divine: Cause X, harm, white light, white fire
Blasting:    Detonate, blast bolt, and certain melee weapons
Leeching:    Energy drain, death field, leech, and vampire touch do this
             (No idea of damage resistance also affects hps/exp leeched)
Cursed:      Torment and brimstone partially do this damage type.
             Also, demons, demonseeds, etc. deal this damage naturally.
Mental:      All psi/mnd spells except mindwipe and shatterspell do this.
Mind Control: Mindwipe and shatterspell.
Pressure:    Maelstrom does this.
Radiant:     Sunlight or other radiation (N.B. all no-sun races are vulnerable)
             No spells or effects are known to do this (yet)

A table follows, enumerating resistances and vulnerabilities for normal races as they are currently assigned. There are no descriptors (faintly, hardly, extremely, etc.) listed because they are just preliminary amounts.
