only be healed with
the use of the Doctor
skill. First Aid has
no affect on this type
of damage. Generally,
you can only get a
crippled limb or eye
from a critical hit in
combat.
Eye Damage - If your
character takes a bad
blow to her eyes or
head, she can be
crippled in the eyes.
Until the eye damage
is healed, your
character will have a
reduced Perception.
This will affect your
character’s ability to
spot things and will
affect ranged combat
dramatically.
Crippled Right/Left
Arm - If your
character takes a serious blow to one of his arms,
it may be crippled. It could be the arm, or the
wrist, or the hand that is seriously hurt. In any
case, if one arm is crippled, your character cannot
use two-handed weapons. If both arms are crippled,
your character is in a serious hurt and cannot use
any weapons at all.
Crippled Right/Left Leg - A critical hit to your
character’s leg may cause that leg to be crippled.
If one leg is crippled, it will cost more Action

permenately lower your
statistics, do HP damage,
or kill you outright. It
all depends on the amount
of radiation. Note, that
the most lethal amount of
radiation still takes a
small amount of time
before the really bad
effects take affect. Save
often, and use those
different slots!
