CONTUSION - Early
About this wound
A bruised forearm with swelling and discoloration across the impact zone: blue, purple, and yellow tones blended to suggest a fresh blunt-force injury. This effect is quick to apply and immediately recognisable, making it ideal for high-volume training where responders need to triage multiple casualties and spot soft-tissue trauma at a glance.
Scenario ideas
- A school sports day with multiple minor injuries: responders must quickly assess a child who fell during a relay race and decide if the swollen forearm needs further evaluation or can be managed with ice and elevation on-site.
- An occupational health training drill in a factory: a worker reports being struck by a falling object; use this effect to teach staff how to document soft-tissue injury, check for hidden fractures through observation and gentle questioning, and know when to escalate care.
