Here is what I've got so far. Updated List. U]Physical[/U] Light (+1 TN, -1 Init) Deep cut severed/broken finger broken nose flesh wound small burn Small cut or graze Lighter/cigarette burn Low-caliber gunshot minor stab wound severed digit mid-sized burn or smaller serious burn Severed digits Low caliber gunshot wound to limb Superficial headwound (cheek blown through, etc.) Moderate (+2 TN, -2 Init) Broken Arm Damaged Eye Partially severed hand/foot broken sternum Bullet wound (In a minor area of the body) Slice (Being attacked with an edged weapon) Minor bonfire burn solid gunshot wound that didn't hit organs cracked ribs significant blood loss. Extremity destroyed (hand mangled, sword induced foot loss) Glancing headwound (broken jaw, ear loss) Shot to non-vital area of torso/Broken ribs Eye+Nose bleed, burns (drain Serious (+3 TN, -3 Init) damaged organs severed limb severe burns Bullet wound (In a more major area, like an arm or leg) Hack (Being attacked with an edged weapon, and bleeding profusely) Major bonfire burn Gunshot wound to torso including organ damage broken ribs broken limb severe burns massive blood loss. Punctured lung Serious internal bleeding (severed femoral artery, etc.) Extremity / limb destroyed (see picture in Man&Machine for Trauma Damper...that guy's arm) High caliber torso shot Blood faucet courtesy facial orifaces 2nd degree burns to good portion of body(drain) Deadly Bullet wound (In the head, neck, or torso) Severance (Loss of limb) 3rd Degree Burn Gunshot wound to head that didn't glance off skull deep wound to neck massive trauma to skull or ribcage even more massive blood loss than Serious Physical. Bullet in the head / heart De-legged Gutted from sternum to crotch like a rainbow trout courtesy a samurai Arteries snaking out of limbs, third degree burns in localized areas (drain) Mental Light(+1 TN, -1 Init) Light headache Stubbed finger/toe Decently bad headache significant lightheadedness. Moderate (+2 TN, -2 Init) Headache Loud noise (Machinery, music, screaming) Disorientation minor migraine Serious (+3 TN, -3 Init) Head trauma Constant headaches Serious migraine serious disorientation lightheadedness to the point of significant balance problems minor concussion Deadly Concussion (Possibly Physical overflow) Serious concussion lightheadedness/disorientation past the point of functionality unconsciousness. I was wondering if anybody could help me out with this? :)

Sorry, I like it.), when you take D Physical, you check to see if you lose any limbs. Physical: Light Small cut or graze Lighter/cigarette burn Moderate Bullet wound (In a minor area of the body) Slice (Being attacked with an edged weapon) Minor bonfire burn Serious Bullet wound (In a more major area, like an arm or leg) Hack (Being attacked with an edged weapon, and bleeding profusely) Major bonfire burn Deadly Bullet wound (In the head, neck, or torso) Severance (Loss of limb) 3rd Degree Burn Mental: Light Light headache Stubbed finger/toe Moderate Headache Loud noise (Machinery, music, screaming) Serious Head trauma Constant headaches (I'm doing horrible with my English rolls right now... What is that word?) Deadly Concussion (Possibly Physical overflow)

Guests	Tanka has a good description there. A character typically won't leave any traceable material, such as a large enough puddle of blood, to be tracked via magic until he reaches a Moderate wound or higher. Sometimes stun damage will cause slight nose bleeds and the like if it's Serious or higher... another fun physical manifestation to let your friends know when it's good to slap a stim patch on you while you're away from the meat. Mind you, only the one patch per day boys. And my next invention... the slim patch! Just one a day and you'll see those pounds vanish into thin air!

QUOTE (tanka)

Physical:

Light
Small cut or graze
Lighter/cigarette burn
<snip>

Mental:

Light
Light headache
Stubbed finger/toe

I disagree. Remember, a Light wound is something that will make all tasks significantly harder (+1 to all TNs) and is something that a Light Pistol shot is capable of, if not staged either way. Light wounds may be Light, but they aren't minor. A lighterburn doesn't even hit L damage, IMO. There's no way a stubbed finger/toe or light headache would do that, either.

Light Physical: Low-caliber gunshot, minor stab wound, severed digit, mid-sized burn or smaller serious burn.

Moderate Physical: solid gunshot wound that didn't hit organs, cracked ribs, significant blood loss.

Serious Physical: Gunshot wound to torso including organ damage, broken ribs, broken limb, severe burns, massive blood loss.

Deadly Physical: Gunshot wound to head that didn't glance off skull, deep wound to neck, massive trauma to skull or ribcage, even more massive blood loss than Serious Physical.

Light Mental: Decently bad headache, significant lightheadedness. Getting hit in the head hard by a comparatively soft object (a few good hits with a heavy pillow maybe)

Moderate Mental: Disorientation, minor migraine. (Getting hit in the head by a padded weapon, getting punched in the face)

Serious Mental: Serious migraine, serious disorientation, lightheadedness to the point of significant balance problems, minor concussion (getting slugged in the face by someone who knows what they're doing, taking a sandbag to the back of the head)

Deadly Mental: Serious concussion, lightheadedness/disorientation past the point of functionality, unconsciousness. (Taking a sandbag to the back of the head by someone who knows what they're doing, an escrima stick to the head)

I'd also have to question femoral artery severing being under Serious, as those things generally lead to pretty quick death if not attended to immediately. ~J

Moving Target Group: Members Posts: 608 Joined: 9-July 02 From: California Member No.: 2,955	Yeah, that's generally what happens to seriously wounded people in my games. Unless they're close to a doctor or a mage they're going to bleedout and die very quickly. Dead does equal dead for us, unless you Hand o' God, and even then, you've got overflow to deal with. My bad on the Trauma/pain thing. I can never figure which is which, and have constant arguments - "NO! THAT'S THE TRAUMA EDITOR!" "You cockface! There's no such thing!"

Manus Celer Dei Group: Dumpshocked Posts: 17,006 Joined: 30-December 02 From: Boston Member No.: 3,802	Ok, if you go off-canon and eliminate overdamage and add bleeding after Serious, then your damage levels make perfect sense. That would, however, have been something good to say when posting :P ~J

Incertum est quo loco te mors expectet; Group: Dumpshocked Posts: 6,546 Joined: 24-October 03 From: DeeCee, U.S. Member No.: 5,760	Something else to keep in mind is that these might be different for different characters, based off of your body (represented by 'staging damage down'). So, because of his shear bulk, the uber troll is mildly annoyed by the .45 bullet lodged between his ribs, whereas the dinky mage is now equally distracted because of a big, nasty paper cut (OWWWIIIEEE! Need to convert that library to CD already...)

Deja vu! I do that exact thing!

[edit]
oops.. not exactly, I still have overdamage but at that point your body is NOT a self-supporting entity.. death already knocked, you answered, and he's having coffe with you on the veranda. Your body is in a coma, or if you make that really sick roll, it should be in a coma but is barely conscious. It's that state in the movies where you have that really touching scene to say some last words before shuffling off this mortal coil, or get that last luck shot burning all your karma a la Road to Perdition.

Short story. You re definitely not okay.. thats a light in the tunnel near death experience.
