From publisher blurb: Appalling Injuries for Shadow of the Demon Lord! As Unhinged Mind expanded the rules for insanity and madness, Battle Scars provides a set of optional rules that amplify the existing damage rules to present a grittier game, where injuries sustained in the course of an adventure can have lasting consequences. The rules do not simplify the game or make it any easier to survive. In fact, they turn what is arguably a challenging game for characters to survive into a potentially lethal one. However, they act as a wellspring of ideas for building and developing the characters’ stories as the venture through a dangerous and dying land.
