If an attack would kill, the attacker may instead inflict a serious permanent injury (limb severed, permanent loss of function, etc.). Target also suffers wounded / wounded twice / incapacitated (GM's option). Not automatically a Dark Side Point.
If a character takes two Wound levels in a single round, they can do nothing but defend or run for the next two rounds. In either round, they may attempt an Easy stamina or willpower roll (as an action) to recover early.
Stunned: bruise, sprain, laceration, minor dislocation Wounded: deep laceration, torn ligaments, major dislocation, minor break Wounded Twice: broken bone, gaping wound, concussion Incapacitated: multiple fractures, vital-area injury, heavy concussion Mortally Wounded: above + multiple internal injuries Dead: broken neck, punctured lung, evisceration
Generally, no attack roll is required unless someone can "attack" with it. Armor/protection applicability is GM discretion. Except for falling, damage is usually per round of close contact.
