Also while I’m in “reminisce about fighting” mode, let me pass on that to my frustration a kidney punch works exactly like the WoW rogue ability, it disables activating your muscles for a few seconds

I don’t think it’s a nerve thing, you can still feel, it might be that it blocks the ability for your body to flush the ions that contract and release muscles so they lock up. You don’t fall down at least, but it’s like you can’t volitionally move them.
