-Hit area is very important, as you can't lose an eye by being hit in the toe, or lose an arm through a cut to the face. The areas are **Head**, **Arms**, **Legs**, and **Torso**. The Torso is the most likely area to be hit and the Head is the least likely to be hit, if both the attacker and the defender are the same [[Size]]; bigger attackers have an easier time attacking the Head, however, smaller attackers have an easier time attacking the Legs, (unless their weapons are long enough to adjust).+Hit area is very important, as you can't lose an eye by being hit in the toe, or lose an arm through a cut to the face.

   * Speaking of, __**Blindness**__ from either brain damage or an unfortunate strike across the face comes with a -9 penalty to Attack Skill, Defence Skill, and Precision. A Blind mage can still engage in magical [[Research]], somehow, but certain magic is forbidden to them; ??The Eyes of God??, for example.   * Speaking of, __**Blindness**__ from either brain damage or an unfortunate strike across the face comes with a -9 penalty to Attack Skill, Defence Skill, and Precision.

   * **Muteness** from brain damage (or a damaged tongue) reduces all of a commander's Leadership scores by 75%, and applies a negative "pathboost" penalty to each of their [[magic]] paths; this "boost" is half of their skill in each path, rounded up. If the ability to speak is restored, the old magic skill is restored.   * **Muteness** from brain damage (or a damaged tongue) reduces all of a commander's Leadership scores by 75%, and applies a negative "pathboost" penalty to each of their [[magic]] paths; this "boost" is half of their skill in each path, rounded up.

-  * __**Dementia**__, or absentmindedness, weakens the subject's mind and their connection to things as they are. The demented fellow has a -2 penalty to [[Magic Resistance]], both their Leadership and their Research ability **reduced by 50%** (indicating time wasted staring at nothing), and occasionally waste their time in battle to stare at nothing.+  * __**Dementia**__, or absentmindedness, weakens the subject's mind and their connection to things as they are.

   * To be "__**Feebleminded**__" is to suffer either serious brain damage or a severe cut in one's sense of self, such that **spellcasting is impossible**. Becoming feebleminded also breaks whatever Global Enchantments or Battlefield Enchantments you were upholding. Other effects include -5 Magic Resistance and -1 penalties to Attack Skill, Defence Skill, and Precision.   * To be "__**Feebleminded**__" is to suffer either serious brain damage or a severe cut in one's sense of self, such that **spellcasting is impossible**.

   * **Losing your Head** is technically an affliction, yes, but the effect is death for most units. It's only attainable in the same fashion as the guaranteed arm loss; being hit with more than half your max HP's worth of damage in the area, by a {{:abilities:resist_slash.png?15&nolink}}Slash.   * **Losing your Head** is technically an affliction, yes, but the effect is death for most units.
