Random Hit Locations: An optional house rule to suggest colorful gory details. Note that "hit points" measure more than trauma, but combat focus and armor status as well. (None of these descriptions should imply character hinderances, add conditions, force concentration checks or affect the damage rules - it's just flavor text ahead of healing wounds and mending armor.)
