Prison fights

Prison fights use the standard fight UI against prisoners, guards, and champions (different icons / rarity). Wins and losses adjust Prison Rep, fighting skill, sentence extensions, and progress toward achievements and quests.

Difficulties and HP bands

Tier	HP roll (approx.)	Notes
Weak	60–80	Cell theft, easy callouts
Normal	80–120	Default inmate brawls
Tough	120–180	Gang initiation, yard bounty
Champion	200–250	Epic rarity; special move set
Guard	150–200	Police officer icon; baton / taser / pepper

warning

Winning a voluntary prison fight still adds sentence days (default +7 in normal cases; some events use +2 or +3). You are trading rep and skill for a longer stay unless the context is worth it.

Standard win / lose

Result	Typical effect
Win	+15 Prison Rep, +10 fighting, +7 days (default), progress on fight-related goals
Run / lose	−10 Prison Rep, progress on “fights lost” style tracking

Your attacks (usable vs inmates)

Attack	Gating / scaling
Punch	Fighting skill % adds to damage band
Kick	Sports skill % adds to damage
Headbutt	Big damage; self-damage 5–10 health
Shiv stab	Needs prison shiv or prison knife item
Intimidate	If Prison Rep < 80, damage is weak; ≥ 80 hits 20–40
Dodge-counter	One use per fight; small self-heal + damage

Enemy patterns

Foe	Example moves
Inmate	Swing, tackle, taunt (morale), shiv slash on non-Common rarity
Guard	Baton, pepper spray (health + morale), taser (health + energy), “call backup” heals them
Champion	Combo burst, submission (health + energy chip), champion taunt

tip

Bring a crafted shiv before picking fights you intend to win, and save dodge-counter for mid-fight stabilization when health is shaky.
