Description
This small plugin makes you keep an eye on your fatigue a little closer. You better make sure you have enough fatigue before you go into battle. And if your fatigue is getting low while in battle, you better run away, hide, take a minute to catch your breath, then go back and finish off the creature. Or you could carry a good supply of restore fatigue potions or some other means to regain some energy.

When your fatigue goes below 60%, strength, agility, speed, and endurance are reduced by 3 points. If it's below 30%, those same attributes are reduced another 3 points. Let your fatigue go below 15% and strength, agility, speed, and endurance are reduced a total of 12 points plus you lose the ability to jump. Finally, if your fatigue reaches zero you will fall helpless to the ground.

Installation and use
  1. Unzip the archive into Morrowind's data files folder.
  2. From the Morrowind Launcher, select the appropriate plugin to load: Either FallingDown.esp or FallingDown-Tribunal.esp.
If you're going to use the non-Tribunal version of this plugin with a savegame already in progress, travel to Seyda Neen to have the plugin activated.

If you don't like the messages that are displayed by default, you can disable them by talking to Douglas in Seyda Neen and choosing the Falling Down topic.
