📋 About This Mod
DISCLAIMER: In no way do I condone the idea of killing or harming children in real life. This mod exists solely by request for individuals who value realism and the consequences of their actions while playing a video game. It was highly un-immersive for people to have an invulnerable race of super children roaming a highly dangerous, futuristic world. This mod allows them to be vulnerable just like you. Just because children are now vulnerable does NOT mean the player necessarily has to be the one to kill them, although it is possible. Please keep that in mind before judging/commenting.
It's possible this mod may need more tweaking to remove the effect from NPCs as their quests complete or as we understand their relevance to the game. Some children are left essential as they are required for their associated quest(s).
This mod will compliment my other mod, Non-Lethal Framework, which allows you to restrain knocked out actors.
