Maybe hear some proposals about how to effectively have this work game mechanics wise?
Just to give some examples:
- Cap swordfighting/jousting skill
- ...
Also, I was initially thinking (when I started to read your post) about adding Character characteristics (physical). So have an extra field with just some informative physical attributes about your character. Like, 'bad knee', 'limping', 'scar on the face', 'only one eye',... And maybe duels/training matches/battles/especially torturing/.. would add more attributes to this (with a small chance of course). I know these things can just as easily be roleplayed, but it's something that came up in my head and wanted to share.
