But if I recall some GM manuals have rules describing certain injuries. The first edition of the Star Wars d20 System Core Rulebook (from the year 2000) had a sidebar on the page about injury and death, which explained the skillsrolls were affected by injury to specific body parts.:

I had a rule where if you suffered more than your Constitution score (or half your Con score) in damage from one attack you got an injury - a broken leg (movement penalty) or you lost an eye (vision penalties).

There was no set system for what injury or what penalties it incurred - I kind of winged all that :P
