Maybe up to half their Con score in negative HP is unconscious? What would the drawbacks there be?As for the first...hrmmmm. Nonlethal damage can be done by taking -4 to an attack, and then it deals regular damage? What about doing that, and if the damage taken exceeds their Con score and they fail a Fort save, they're knocked out for a number of rounds, like 10 - Con modifier? Constitution might be the best core ability for this. And maybe it can only be done when an opponent has their guard down (i.e. no Dex bonus to AC). That may be too much. Thoughts?</blockquote>
