Don’t make paragraphs about it - battles are supposed to be fast-paced
- the object used to harm the character
-how long the character had had the injury
-how deep the cut is (for blades)
-whether or not the wound triggers other things (dizziness, bleeding)
There are different kinds of pain
punch/blunt force trauma:
-how it feels: aching, a single spike of pain before it fades into an ache, throbbing, numbness
-effects: swelling, bruising, broken bones, unconsciousness, dizziness, concussion, internal bleeding.
-how it feels: stinging (shallow wounds), burning
-effects: bleeding (the blood from arteries is a brighter red, like vermilion, the blood from veins is dark crimson), dizziness from the blood loss, unconsciousness, infection (if left unattended), death
-how it feels: depends on the caliber bullet, from how far away they were shot and in what place
-effects: same as stab wounds
Things that an injured character may have/do
-heavy, harsh, ragged breathing
-panting, gasping, crying, grunting, hissing, groaning, whimpering, screaming, shrieking, clenching their teeth
-ears ringing, unable to speak
-pressing their hands on the injury to try and stop the bleeding, trembling, eyes rolling up into their head
-vision blurring, room spinning
temple and jaw - good for a knockout punch, but are near the skull so it will be dangerous if you miss (it can broke/dislocate your fingers)
nose/eyes - messes up the senses and distracts the opponent
neck: can mess up breathing, talking and the spinal cord
inner elbow: can disable the opponent’s arm
solar plexus: hard to hit but very effective
liver: causes immediate pain, dizziness and loss of breath
But not getting into a fight stops the injury for both the opponents :)
