Injury
Injuries are the representation of a Character's body pushed past its limits and the accompanying side effects. These side effects range from being Winded or slightly Concussed all the way up to Broken Limbs and Flesh Wounds, as seen in the table below.
When prompted to generate an Injury roll a D100. The Result is your Total. Compare your Total to the Injury Table below. Once the Injury you would receive is known, apply any Upgrades or Downgrades such as those on the Common Injury Upgrades and Downgrades Table below. You now may either accept the Injury and its effects or you may use Abilities, such as "Not Today!", to alter the outcome.
When generating an Injury you Upgrade it for each previous Injury you have suffered in the current [Encounter]. A further Upgrade is applied for each Wound you have.
Should you suffer an Injury you have already received in the current [Encounter], Upgrade your Injury until you recieve a Condition you have not already suffered this [Encounter].
Common Injury Upgrades and Downgrades Table
| Type & Amount | Cause |
|---|---|
| Upgrade once | For each Wound a Character has. |
| Upgrade once | For each previous Injury suffered in an [Encounter]. |
| Upgrade once, twice, or thrice | When an Injury is inflicted by an Ability or Item with the Brutal, Vicious or Disintegrating Traits. |
| Downgrade once | From the Sturdy, Rugged and Indomitable Traits. |
Example: Jim the Enforcer has just been prompted to generate an Injury. Jim has already suffered 1 Injury in this [Encounter] so adds Upgrades once his outcome once. Jim also has a pre-existing Wound so Upgrades his outcome an additional time. Jim rolls a Result of 44 on his D100. Consulting the Injury Table a Total of 44 would mean Jim suffers the effects of Winded. Jim must upgrade this outcome twice and instead would suffer the effects of Concussion Jim accepts the Injury gaining the Concussion Condition until it is healed.
Please Note: Injuries are generally caused by being reduced to 0 Health or some instances of the Dangerous and Fortuitous Properties, see their pages for more information.
