GMs might want to restrict this quirk to just Hit Locations with a "to hit" modifier or -3 to -7, otherwise you get weirdnesses like "Achilles' Left Eye".

I have another version of this quirk which works identically:

Glass Jaw

Doubles all Stun penalties from hits to the Jaw.

Also, this perk gets seriously bad if it applies to hit locations which already carry Stun modifiers, like the Groin.

As a variation:

Easy to Subdue (Location)
Each level of this quirk gives you a -1 penalty to resist Unconsciousness or other non-lethal wounding effects from a hit to a particular body location with a "to hit" modifier of -2 to -7 (e.g., Easy to Subdue (Skull or Vitals).
