Might i recommend making it stun them for one turn, and causing only a short burst of extreme pain, as anger would likely ensue a moment after? And perhaps making them harder to hit, as a balancing factor.I still don't know why getting kicked/bitten in the testicles or having them cut off doesn't cause extreme pain.I will try to make it a more severe trauma
Although it strikes me a bit that my mod is often referred to as a "mod which has balls", it's okay and sometimes even funny
No, im a terrible person for going into human towns, cutting a female childs breasts off, jamming my knife into her (you know what i mean), then strangling her into unconsciousness, breaking her feet, punching all her teeth out, then kicking her in the chest until she cant breathe properly and leaving like nothing happened.My current dwarf adventurer has had a major pride boost. After slaughtering 86 out of 93 kobolds in a cave and then doing normal adventurer quests, my dwarf and his human "companions" were sent to slay the third titan of the day, a mountain titan. In a previous battle, this axedwarf had a motor nerve in his left foot cut and as such was wielding a crutch in addition to his axe and shield. As such, we arrive at the mountain shrine and kill the titan in a lengthy battle (all melee companions perished, and I received no injuries whatsoever). As I am searching the shrine's loot, I find some coins from the single dwarf civ on this world in amongst the corpses of at least eight dwarves. Inspecting the coins for my legends mode collection, I discover that my adventurer is on the back of the silver coin! Hopefully the dwarves will put me on next year's gold coin after they learn of the four titans, ettin, dragon, hydra, and countless lesser notables. Also, I was forced to retire this adventurer when the warlord I was tasked to kill refused to show at his camp after several days of waiting and wandering around the local area slaying bandits and wolves.

I saw 'The Bodices of Virginity' and thought to myself 'I'll fix that.'
Am I a terrible person now?
I think I'm giving up on Adventure mode for awhile. I started yet ANOTHER adventurer, do the usual proceedings, sneaking about, killing things with stones until I feel confident enough to take down my first bandit camp. I kill the ENTIRE camp with nothing but the stones I carried with me except one person whose legs and arms were broken from my rocks and I decide "He's laying on the ground, unconscious. I'll go bash his head in with my axe." As soon as I walk up to him, he wakes up, somehow dodges my swing, latches onto my throat with his TEETH and proceeds to kill me by biting my throat out. Yeah...LOSING is FUN
Just think about the guy having his friends killed off by rocks and that he found the bugger who did it not only broke all his limbs he coming up for the kill/torture the fear of not moving and the fear of what you would do lead to him using his abs to roll past your attacks. Then with a final amount of effort lounge at your throat. Still you died but he's still immobile with all his friends dead loneliness plus lost abilities will creep in to the bandit and sooner or later he will wish for death, maybe at the hands of the next adventurer or from the bogeymen who will no doubt strike the lonely cripple.
The only human error from this is that you wanted to end is suffering up close than to just let the man bleed out or throw more items with a sharp weapon. well at least you learn something from that experience and won't attack someone sleeping up close unless you sure you can take them on awake.
