Dented Iron	comment	What happens when you get enough injuries, even if you appear to be Made of Iron. Usually showcased by having a Made of Iron hero trudge into their headquarters after an action scene (one that more often than not establishes how much punishment the hero can give and receive) only to have them shuffle off their uniform and reveal the various injuries and strain on their joints that a life of adventure would realistically lead to. Typically done to show that the hero is even more of a Determinator than first thought since they're still out doing what they do despite looking like they should be in a hospital. Often the fate for a hero who pushes himself into Heroic RRoD mode on a regular basis. May be combined with Feeling Their Age. See also Scar Survey, Covered with Scars, Perilous Old Fool.

However, when he's depleted of most of his power following the battle to save Canterlot and requires about a week to recharge, they all become much more obvious and he's Covered in Scars.

He also has significant liver damage from alcohol abuse and a severe case of post-traumatic stress disorder. Young Obi-Wan doesn't escape this fate either, suffering from persistent pain and stiffness in one wrist after it got very nearly shredded when his lightsaber blew up in his hand after being sabotaged by Palpatine.

After Tajin wins the duel, he tells his padawan that the Elder was ultimately far more skilled than him, but Tajin was comparatively younger and stronger. In the end, the Elder was defeated by age more than anything. This short was the last work of director Masahiko Ã”tsuka before his retirement.

Onizuka is targeted by a group of baseball bat-wielding motorcycle riders who hit him in the head multiple times. What really makes this fight dramatic is that Onizuka is suffering from a brain condition in which if he suffers one more major blow to the head, he will die. The biker gang is well aware of this information.

Dented Iron / int_267cbfa	comment	While Dominic Deegan, being a Squishy Wizard, is hardly what you'd call iron - more like copper or gilding metal - he takes some serious injuries over the course of the comic, including the loss of a leg and several teeth. The one time we see him go in for a check-up, the diagnosis was summed up as "I'm surprised you're not dead". The major reason he managed to keep going was that his battles were primarily psychic or on magical planes rather than physical. In the finale, half his soul was ripped out and went on a crazy multiversal adventure while the other half couldn't cast without a full soul and had to retire entirely for decades. When he finally got fixed, he spent the rest of his life as a half-crazed afterlife guru.

In a later chapter, one of the wounds from that time turns out to have become infected, causing her to come down with a fever and the affected arm to not work as well as it used to. She tries to keep on pushing herself to keep up morale and be a more effective commander, but this just results in her reopening her arm wound, causing the infection to fester, and nearly killing herself.

Dented Iron / int_341c02e9	comment	Batman Begins has Alfred note that Bruce's injuries will add up over time and suggests talking about extreme sports to explain them away. The Dark Knight has a Shirtless Scene showing multiple lacerations and bruises on his back. This comes to a head in The Dark Knight Rises though not as much from aging as from injury and inactivity. The knee that he hurt in the fall at the end of the previous film never healed properly and he, at first, used a cane to get around. When visiting a doctor a startling list of injuries and damage is given, least of which is that the cartilage in his knees is destroyed. Defying recommendations from Alfred, he tries getting back into fighting shape using a bionic brace on his knee, but it's repeatedly mentioned he is off his game and out of practice.

Dented Iron / int_35e675e2	comment	On Vikings Ragnar is a badass Viking leader who fought in numerous battles and shrugged off many wounds while making himself the king of Kattegat and a healthy chunk of Norway. In season 3 he leads a Viking army against Paris, and during an assault on the city, he is pushed off a city wall and suffers grievous internal injuries. In season 4 we are shown the toll that this injury in particular and all his past injuries have taken on him. It takes months for him to heal from the injuries he suffered in Paris and even after being healed he is noticeably weaker and less energetic than before. Furthermore, he is morbidly obsessed with death and dying, and strongly holds the belief that his own death is imminent. When a slave introduces him to the medieval equivalent of painkillers he almost immediately becomes addicted, which makes him even more withdrawn, dysfunctional, and erratic than before. While still a badass, he is severely diminished both physically and mentally. This eventually happens to all the major characters of the first season. Through Lagertha is a blatant example of Not Allowed to Grow Old, she eventually becomes this at the end of season 5 with large scars of her face and pronounced limp from a incorrectly treated injury. Rollo is last seen being a shell of his former Blood Knight-self, having a physician feed him medicine and his men no longer allowing him to do battle.

This would catch up with him in his late 60s. He had Type 2 diabetes and had to get a pacemaker in 2013 after his irregular heartbeat forced him to cancel shows. In October 2013, he admitted to quitting smoking and drinking.

Dented Iron / int_3f6c7a68	comment	In Cold Days, it's revealed that Mab grants her Winter Knight a higher pain threshold without necessarily a corresponding increase in durability. While he's able to ignore pain, he doesn't actually heal faster or withstand damage, instead just not realizing that he's hurt. The drawbacks of this are examined in detail, and it's specifically noted that if he's not careful, he could rip his muscles from his bones just by overexerting himself without realizing it. Even more dangerously, his pain masking is an effect of the Winter Knight Mantle, which, if he gives into it too much, would gladly make him into an actual psychopathic monster. It's not until Battle Ground that Mab notes that the purpose of the Winter Knight Mantle is to seduce with offers of power, and it's intended and necessary for the Winter Knight to resist those offers and be stronger for it.

Dented Iron / int_631805af	comment	Solid Snake in Metal Gear Solid 4. In his career as a super-soldier, he's taken so much of a beating physically, mentally, and genetically that he's turned into a man who's physically in his 60-70s and is reliant on nanotech injections to keep from coming apart at the seams. Naked Snake in Metal Gear Solid 3 is a long, traumatic game of literal Break the Cutie for the quirky rookie stealth operative who will go on to become the Big Boss. During the ill-fated Virtuous Mission, he discovers that his mentor and mother-figure is a traitor and gets his arm broken, shattered ribs and multiple lacerations from fighting a Curb-Stomp Battle against her. Not even given a week of recovery time, he's back out on another mission when his doctor suggests he should be back in intensive care. He gets shot through the thigh with a crossbow bolt (also poisoned with the venom of one of the deadliest spiders on earth), then he gets captured and subjected to a brutal Cold-Blooded Torture session under a sadistic Soviet Colonel which sees him beaten to within an inch of his life and subjected to 10 million volts of shocknote (a police taser is around 50,000 volts; for added humiliation factor, Snake pisses himself from the sheer agony of the session, which his torturer is aroused by), and then he gets his right eye blown out by the muzzle flash of a point-blank gunshot. That's only counting the canon injuries he takes over the course of the story, nevermind the ones that might happen over the course of a given playthrough. He's a physical wreck by the end credits, and it shows.

Even a Terminator can't last forever, especially in a time that doesn't have the technology to properly repair him. His joints actually stop working for a few seconds at a couple points in the movie, requiring some Percussive Maintenance to unjam them. He's old...but not obsolete.

Dented Iron / int_694ab80	comment	In Batman Beyond, Bruce finally hangs up his cape (figuratively speaking, since his latest suit doesn't have one) after a hostage rescue goes awry due to his body deteriorating much faster than normal aging would account for. He still appears to be in excellent shape at that point, but his heart isn't what it used to be, and having a heart attack in the middle of a fight, he ends up forced to grab a gun to defend himself against a mook, and, disgusted with himself for this act afterwards, he decides that it is time to retire. By the time Terry McGinnis shows up at his mansion, Bruce is genuinely old and walks with a cane. In "Disappearing Inque", he states that he once tried to compensate for his deteriorating state by using Powered Armor, but it's the armor that ended up damaging his heart due to the strain. In "The Winning Edge" Terry tracks down Bane (long retired) to investigate the case of Venom being distributed as a performance-enhancing drug, only to find out that Bane's use of Venom over his life has left him crippled, comatose, and on 24/7 life support.

Dented Iron / int_6bbde1c8	comment	Overwatch: Reinhardt is still in his Power Armour kicking ass at 61 years old, but his age and his scars do occasionally catch up with him. It's implied he wants to retire, but he feels he can't. The superhero organisation he was a part of fell apart after he was forced out of action and someone has to pick up the pieces. His suit is in a similar condition — it's still fully capable of kicking ass, but time is catching up with it. It's made very obvious just how worn down both he and his armor are when we see what they were like at their prime in his animated short "Honor and Glory", where he plows through entire streets of battle-Omnics like they're nothing, laughing all the while. Really this applies to all the older heroes, to varying physical and mental degrees. Soldier: 76 is a disillusioned shell of his old self, Ana had her right eye shot out and seems to suffer PTSD, TorbjÃ¶rn is horrifically racist towards Omnics due to bitterness, Cassidy has both an artificial arm and a severe identity crisis, and Reaper is implied to be in constant unbearable pain due to his flawed healing powers.

Over the course of the series, he loses his left hand and right eye, while his body becomes riddled with scars. After receiving burns from Emperor Ganishka's lightning his skin becomes so scarred that he can't even sweat properly. To make matters worse, the Berserker Armour that enables him to fight like a demon and ignore pain also robs him of life the more he uses it, steadily bleaching his hair and numbing his perception of taste and color. The Skull Knight warns that it could eventually turn Guts into a literal walking corpse like him.

She mentions several years later in Tortall: A Spy's Guide that she's retiring as King's Champion, complaining of how difficult it's become for her to even raise her arms while in full armor now that she's in her late forties. Although Mattes Tunstall is one of the most famous Dogs in the Beka Cooper books, he's been in far too many fights and brawls over the years. He gets both legs broken in Bloodhound and spends the rest of the book laid up because his body is resistant to healing magic now. It's part of the reason for his Took a Level in Jerkass and Faceâ€“Heel Turn in the third book - he's almost always in pain still trying to do the very physical job that's been his livelihood and identity for so long, but he doesn't think he can just take a desk job like his old partner Goodwin.

However, her body still registers damage pertaining to her method of death in the previous loop when she wakes up in Carter's dorm room at the start of the loop, making it also a non-video game example of Continuing is Painful. For example, when she is drowned by the killer in one loop she wakes up in the next loop coughing and spitting out water onto the floor; in another loop after she is killed in an exploding car she wakes up with the mother of all headaches and demands silence as the explosion is still ringing in her ears. The exact details are never clarified, but it adds to the suspense as Tree doesn't know whether the next loop could be her last as her body finally accumulates too much damage and fails outright.

Knightfall has him overstrained by a breakout at Arkham and eventually crippled by Bane, which took him a year to recover from.

By this point, he's 70 years old and long past his physical prime. While he's still in very good shape for a man his age and can still throw some punches (provided he catches his opponent off guard), he displays severe exertion pulling off physical feats that would have been nothing to him even twelve years prior, and most fights he gets into end with him being overpowered handily.

However, he seems to meet his match after being run over with the Arbogast's hearse, leaving a nasty gash right down the center of his forehead. While he survives and manages to sleep off the initial concussion and the drugs Elsa gives him when treating him, he still has a noticeable split in his forehead and has clearly sustained some sort of brain damage since he seems slightly...off now. Viktor Vasko went from wartime trenches to labour-related violence to working as a hired thug for a speakeasy, a job he's held for seven years, and it's done a number on his body.

That battle nearly destroyed his respiratory system and cost him his entire stomach.

His successor Izuku Midoriya is facing the same risks. After injuring himself too many times from using power beyond what his body can handle, he's told that his injuries will soon build up until he's too disabled to be a hero.

Despite how much ass he kicks during the Battle of Marineford, it's acknowledged that he's not as good as he was during his prime. Which is why he dies. He was stabbed 267 times (including being impaled on a giant sword), shot 562 times, hit with 46 cannonballs, and pierced by lasers along with having half his face melted off. 20 years earlier, that still wouldn't have been enough to kill him. Special mention goes to the fact, however, that, despite his front side getting absolutely obliterated, his back, even all these years, is completely spotlessnote Aside from swords that went all the way through when he was stabbed from the front, two of which were still in him when he died., owing to the fact that he never ran from a fight. For a non-human example, we have Zunesha the elephant. It has lived for over a millennium and has carried the island of Zou on its back for almost that long, but such a long lifespan took its toll on its body.

More specifically, Berengar knows that Geralt at one point tore a ligament in his knee and can tell it never healed properly from his footwork.

Due to not only how dangerous their profession is but also the tolls medical jutsu invoke on a person (medical jutsu isn't magic, it only speeds up the healing), most ninja develop arthritis in their thirties. Regardless of how in shape they are, by fifty their bones and internal organs match up with a civilian in their seventies. It's another reason those like Sarutobi who live to their seventies are legendary. Not only did they survive shinobi life for roughly sixty years, but physically they're at least in their nineties.

Dented Iron / int_ba666650	comment	Naked Snake in Metal Gear Solid 3 is a long, traumatic game of literal Break the Cutie for the quirky rookie stealth operative who will go on to become the Big Boss. During the ill-fated Virtuous Mission, he discovers that his mentor and mother-figure is a traitor and gets his arm broken, shattered ribs and multiple lacerations from fighting a Curb-Stomp Battle against her. Not even given a week of recovery time, he's back out on another mission when his doctor suggests he should be back in intensive care. He gets shot through the thigh with a crossbow bolt (also poisoned with the venom of one of the deadliest spiders on earth), then he gets captured and subjected to a brutal Cold-Blooded Torture session under a sadistic Soviet Colonel which sees him beaten to within an inch of his life and subjected to 10 million volts of shocknote (a police taser is around 50,000 volts; for added humiliation factor, Snake pisses himself from the sheer agony of the session, which his torturer is aroused by), and then he gets his right eye blown out by the muzzle flash of a point-blank gunshot. That's only counting the canon injuries he takes over the course of the story, nevermind the ones that might happen over the course of a given playthrough. He's a physical wreck by the end credits, and it shows.

Ryuhou seems to take some of the damage his Alter Zetsuei does in its true form. By the end of the series, he has noticeable scars or possibly wrinkles where Zetsuei's third form attaches to his face. Kazuma gains numerous lines and discolorations on his arm similar to his Shell Bullet Alter, including some spots of pure black where his skin seems to be simply gone. After gaining the power of the Other Side, he loses the ability to use his right eye if he's not at least in the Shell Bullet's second form and regularly comments on his arm hurting when not using his Alter. By the end of the series, parts of his hair are the same bright orange as his Alter and he's gained more lines on his face.

About seventy years after the events of Avatar: The Last Airbender, they don't move like they used to anymore due to age, injuries, and what have you, although they do teach and heal where they can. Case in point, after the first real fight she's had in quite some time, Toph mentions that her back was just about to give. It also shows when Zuko participated in the fight against the Red Lotus with Tonraq, Desna, and Eska. While he lasted a good while longer than the latter two, who are exceptionally talented young waterbenders, he was floored by one solid hit from Ghazan (and fighting at night in arctic tundra, a place where he's at his weakest, likely did not help). Korra herself also suffers from this early in season 4, as she is still suffering from the effects of her poisoning, though she mostly recovers.

Dented Iron / int_f7d93e4a	comment	Assassin's Creed III: After all the battles he weathered during the American Revolution, when Connor suffers a fall and a wooden stake stabbed through his body during the chase for Charles Lee at the Revolution's end, he starts noticeably walking with a limp that remains even years later, indicating that while he might be a capable Assassin, he's still a mortal man. Valhalla: In the Siege of Paris DLC, Count Odo tells Eivor in their encounter after the titular siege that he's pretty dented. He got off easy though, given Eivor was trying not to kill him.

Dented Iron / int_f8df4747	comment	In The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye, Megatron has become this. In his prime, he was almost supernaturally powerful, but now a combination of age, injury, self-doubt, and a power-sapping toxin has Brought Him Down To Normal. Subverted Trope. Ratchet eventually admits that the "toxin" is just a placebo to make Megatron more manageable. This revelation, coupled with Megatron overcoming his self-loathing, restores him to being a Person of Mass Destruction. The problem had always been mental; physically he was just as dangerous as ever.

Dented Iron / int_f9d9198e	comment	Major League features a sports version with Jake Taylor. Taylor is a former star baseball player whose chronic knee problems have left his career hanging by a thread. (Indeed, he starts the movie playing in a baseball league in Mexico, drunk out of his mind with the implication that he's engaging in a bit of Drowning My Sorrows.) Worse yet, Taylor is a catcher, a position that puts tremendous stress on the knees, so every time he plays he does more damage to them. While he's an invaluable part of the team as a mentor to younger players and someone who can keep arrogant and selfish veterans honest, Jake doesn't have the physical talent to perform as he used to and must make up for it through a combination of experience and guile. In the sequel the team makes the decision to move Jake from being an active player to a coach, because while his knowledge of the game and ability to mentor young players is still very useful, physically he just can't compete at a professional level anymore.

Dented Iron / int_fa3976bb	comment	B.J. Blazkowicz of Wolfenstein fame gets this treatment starting in Wolfenstein: The New Order, delivering this line as Fergus is giving him CPR during the opening sequence. This culminates in the sequel, as his injuries from the previous game left him paralyzed from the waist down, only able to walk when wearing Power Armor. His maximum health is also lowered to 50, from 100, so be careful. Fortunately for him, getting beheaded by the Nazis, and then having his head reattached to a Super-Soldier synthetic body does away with such things.

Dented Iron / int_fc1d6ac6	comment	Geralt of The Witcher series is in a profession where he is constantly at risk of getting slashed by both monster claws and man-made steel alike. While he's pretty much considered the best witcher that has ever lived, all those years on the job have really left their marks on his body.

Dented Iron / int_fc92147	comment	Transformers: Last Bot Standing: Nobody involved has seen proper refuel or repair in a very, very long time, and that most of them have had to modify themselves to run on Human Resources doesn't help. Riotgear's transformation cog keeps sticking and he needs Override to give him a kick to complete it, Wheelie has been trimmed down to just a haiku-spouting head to let him run on less fuel, and even Rodimus is basically held together with anger and baling twine. The Visitors' Combining Mecha form, Unstoppimus, is barely a threat since it's running on fumes.

Dented Iron / int_fd96c2bc	comment	The Dead Man arc in Judge Dredd showed that, horrific burns aside, Dredd has a lot of scars from bullets. Note that he's actually had numerous skin grafts performed on him during his lifetime, and he's still scarred beyond belief. That's what you get from getting into firefights with bad guys armed with machine guns and chainsaws for fifty years straight.
