If a player is ever knocked unconscious or receives a critical hit they have a possibility of receiving a permanent injury. They do however get to make a fortitude save to not receive a permanent injury, the DC is equal to 10 + the CR of the creature who hit them. These effects are randomly determined by rolling percentile dice on the table below. Effects are permanent and cumulative, though the GM should re roll results that seem too crippling or don’t make sense such as a character losing a hand two or three times. The regenerate spell heals scars and restores lost limbs, removing both positive and negative effects.

Um guys....! Poppo clutches at his bloody shoulder.
The ghoul bites into the halfling and as he does Poppo tenses up and is unable to move.
Poppo's muscles suddenly tighten and fear crosses his face! A look of horror is stuck on his frozen checks.
Seeing Poppo go down, Turngut bellows Hoppo, no! And for possibly the first time, you hear a hint of fear creep into the massive orc's voice. Tearing his eyes off the prone form of the halfling, he zeros in on the Red ghoul, steps up and releases a flurry of blows, first trying to trip and then punch the hopefully downed (and AC-lowered) opponent.
Turngut doesn't trip the ghoul but gets a decent strike on the ghoul.
Nalia seeing that Poppo was bitten quickly decapitates the yellow ghoul.
The final ghoul didn't like getting punched by Turngut and will full round him.

Assuming you guys check the Library.
Books from several of the bookshelves lining the walls have been torn to shreds the leather of the books having been chewed on, you do not find any books intact. Besides the hundreds of destroyed books in this room is a chest that contains pens and parchment that is still in relatively decent condition the chest also has a small pouch that contain twenty five gold pieces.
As the paralysis subsides, Wow, I couldn't move a muscle, but I knew what was going on. Thanks for killing those things off. My stomach doesn't feel so good, I think it didn't like the sudden stop. Let me take a minute and eat an orange to see if that helps. Thanks Nalia.
Nalia heals Poppo as he rambles on. He takes out two oranges, tosses one to Turngut, Anyone else want an orange? I've got loads. He offers the one in his hand around to everyone.
After looking around the library, he hands the coins to Turngut, You better carry these. This place is such a waste. I'm beginning to think that mayor was too ashamed to reclaim it. I don't think I like this place very much. Let's get this job done and leave!
Where to next?

Nalia takes the proffered orange, enjoying a quick rest and refreshment before helping Bobie make his emergency bonfire.
Did that voice stop? The one saying put me back? Have we dealt with that by putting that book back like you did Poppo? According to the map he gave us the bath should be next door to this room and the armory around the corner. I'm sure all of us could use a nice long soak in a bath, but for whatever reason I don't think that's what we'll find!
Yeah bath first, then armory, let's get it done. Poppo exclaims grimly.
Turngut feels the nasty effects of the ghouls seep into his muscles, but the fight is over before he has to worry about it. Jespar good at killing! He exclaims, then casually catches the orange from Poppo and pops it into his mouth, peel and all. He rests his massive paw on the halfling's shoulder while he munches away, listening to the group talk about plans.
Turngut help with book pile. Feeling good now after woman use magic to heal. His eyes light up as he mentions magic. This is all still very new and exciting for him. In the fighting pits, the best healing that he could count on were some old rags and maybe water.
After piling up the books along with any other tinder/flammible items , Turngut will go to the bath door and listen carefully.
Turngut listens at the door not hearing any movement, but he does hear bubling.
Standing at the door, Turngut looks from Nalia to Poppo questioningly. If either give him the sign, he'll burst into the room, ready for a fight.
Poppo gives Turngut and Nalia the go sign. But there is hesitancy in his eyes.
As you open the door to the bath you realize that this is not a bath you would want to step in. Instead of water a green liquid fills the entirety of the bath. As the liquid bubbles small amounts of the acid land on the stone outside the bath burning away small chunks of the stone. Then the acid begins to move even more and all of sudden rising from the acid are six greenish skeletons that drip with acid. One of them wearing a breastplate that looks similar to that of a rib cage.

Turngut you act first.
Turngut's eyes widen as the skeletons emerge from the acid bath. He thinks they may have bitten off more than they can chew. Turning his head to look at Bobie, he barks. Back up wrinkle butt! Turngut will cover door, but need Hoppo and woman to fight too. He then turns his attention back to the foes and goes into a defensive stance.
The skeletons begin to rise from the pool and will move to attack Turngut but only the cyan one is able to attack the orc.
With Turngut's total defense he is able to avoid the skeletons attack narrowly.
Jespar will delay.
Bobie, Nalia, and Poppo you guys are up.
Bobie it's more of those miss understood souls you are so found of, think you can take control of some of them!? I'm ready if you move Turngut.
Poppo draws his club, and runs hand over the club quickly, Sihirli! he utters and the club suddenly glows. He then gets ready to smash the first skeleton that comes out the door.
Nalia hits the skeleton but it looks like not all of the damage went through.

Bobie has chosen the purple and the yellow skeletons.
Turngut not have good fighting weapons. Only fist, knees, feet and head. He looks down at the longspear in his hands. This OK, but not as good as fists.
With that, he gives a swift knee and elbow to Cyan before stepping back.
Turngut misses his first attack but knocks the head of the skeleton with his second attack, however as he does the acid from the skeleton melts into Turngut's arm.
Assuming Turngut five foot steps back between Bobie and Jespar the blue skeleton will move into the killbox first getting an AOO from the Purple and Yellow Skeleton.
The two AOO's hit the skeleton blue skeleton killing it.
