I see no harm in killing the children if they simply fall to the ground with no blood or death cry. It seems kind of ridiculous to have invincible people , what if dragons completley decimate a village and kill everybody ... there will be dead advlts , destroyed buildings and some kids walking around as if nothing has happened?
Can children report crimes? It will ruin a stealthy thief type of gameplay if you are unable to kill somebody who is running to the guards.
I saw the mayor mcready mod were sum1 killed him .... it was beautiful
