+
+## Handler Class
+**File:** `src/engine/db/handlers/dbEffectsBaseHandler.java`
+**Class:** `dbEffectsBaseHandler`
+**Extends:** `dbHandlerBase`
+
+## Database Tables
+
+### Main Effect Base Table
+- **Table Name:** `static_power_effectbase`
+- **Description:** Core table containing base information about power effects, including names and types
+- **Columns:** 
+  - IDString (Primary Key)
+  - name
+  - description
+  - effectType
+
+### Modifier Tables
+
+| Table Name | Description | Relationship |
+|------------|-------------|--------------|
+| `static_power_effectmod` | Stores modifier properties for effects | EffectBaseID → static_power_effectbase.IDString |
+
+## Key Queries
+
+### Get All Effects Base
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM static_power_effectbase ORDER BY `IDString` DESC
+```
+**File:** `dbEffectsBaseHandler.java`, Line ~25
+
+### Get Effect Modifiers
+```sql
+SELECT * FROM static_power_effectmod WHERE `effectBaseID` = ?
+```
+**File:** `dbEffectsBaseHandler.java`, Line ~40
+
+## Relationships
+
+1. **Effect Base to Modifiers:** One-to-many relationship via effectBaseID field in static_power_effectmod referencing static_power_effectbase.IDString
+2. **Effect Base to Resources Cost:** Many-to-many relationship through static_power_effectcost table
