So, I was wondering and I acknowledge I may be overthinking thise, but how do we go about writing about injuries in combat? I was watching RWBY again, and in ep.1 and Yellow's trailer whenever human beings get attacked, they seem to show little to no actual signs of being damaged. They just simply get knocked away and out cold. Wereas when fighting Grimm, well Grimm get gibbed to oblivion half the time. At the same time, in the case of Wiess and Jaune (although Jaune was healed after) it is shown that they can indeed be visibly injured. So, I was just wondering how that relates to RPs and writing. How do we describe someone getting injured? Is there something I don't know or are following in the theme of people don't get cut, battered or bruised. Just Grimm?
