 ## Consequences of Combat
 Injuries in _Vaelora_ represent serious harm- deep cuts, broken bones, exhaustion, internal bleeding, and spiritual dissonance. They are **not abstract HP** or life points. Each point of Injury reflects significant strain, and their accumulation steadily degrades a character’s ability to act.
 
-### Injury Thresholds
-Injury isn’t just damage- it’s **narrative gravity**. Wounds shape the moment, turning confident strides into limps, spells into desperate last resorts. These thresholds reflect not only mechanical penalties, but also the shifting emotional weight of battle.
-
-|**Threshold**|**Condition**|**Mechanical Effect**|**Narrative Impact**|
-|---|---|---|---|
-|**Healthy**|Fewer than half your total **Health** in **Injuries**.|No penalties.|You fight with clarity and purpose. You’re bruised, but unbowed- still in command of your body and spirit.|
-|**Wounded**|More than half of **Health** in **Injuries**.|**–2 dice** to all physically strenuous actions (e.g., melee, athletics, climbing) and **halved APR**|You bleed and ache. Your movements slow. You grit your teeth and carry on, a visible testament to grit and pain.|
-|**Overwhelmed**|**Injuries equal** to your **Health**.|**Half all dive pools**. Can only take **one action** per round (any type). You **cannot reserve actions**.|Every motion is effort. You stumble more than you stride. A final blow, a last spell, a whispered word- whatever you can manage before falling.|
-|**Subdued**|**Injuries exceed** **Health**.|You are **helpless**- incapacitated, unconscious, or otherwise out of the fight.|Your story turns. You fall to the ground, not dead- but broken. Your fate now lies in the hands of allies, enemies, or the Veil itself.|
+When the number of Injuries taken exceeds the Health of the character, the character is [[#Being Subdued|subdued]].
 
 >[!warning] Health does **not** refresh between scenes.
 >Healing requires rest, medicine, or magic. Even then, recovery is slow- and scars may last. The wounds of _Vaelora_ are more than numbers; they’re carried into the next story.
