This one is what almost killed my wizard on the very first skirmish. Just spent 3 ST to cast spells, and the next turn the archer rolled an auto-failure when shooting past me... 6 Hits. Luckily I wasn't a Molly and was only knocked out.

Saving throw to notice poison in food is a save against which attribute? ITL 126

Goes for a one hour horse ride, falls off after 15 minutes, 1d-2 damage; gets back on, falls off again, 1d-2 damage

Yeah, it's not actually poison though...

Most of these are variants of YASD, which low ST characters are especially vulnerable to.

My favorite would be rolling 30' down a steep hill. (ITL p119 2nd paragraph) As a GM I probably wouldn't let a character wind up worse than unconscious from that thought.

But hey, it's dangerous out there, and it pays to be careful.

Maybe a good way to round out the list without resorting to instances of 'YASD' would be to list all the attacks from all the things that would have a ~10 % chance of putting Molly on the floor in a single turn. My guess is it's extensive...

Starting light crossbow sniper has a 55% KO or worse from outside Molly's reach (-2 for missile weapon range at 12 hexes).

Only post examples that beat that percentage with starting resources.
