GMs, please keep in mind when looking at Game's request that if you deny it on the basis of it not being canon, that none of this entire RP is canon.  If a character takes a broken bone from battle, that's a non-canon affliction, and a hindrance that the character wouldn't have otherwise had.  Wouldn't it be weird and/or boring to assume that our characters would go through this entire experience and not change one bit, physically, emotionally, or in terms of ability?
