Use this tag when a character has been impaled upon a stake. This sort of impalement is almost always the result of an execution instead of a fight or an accident - the explicit intent is to torture and humiliate the victim, all while putting them on display. This was often done to condemned criminals as a grim warning to deter future crimes, or to captured troops after battle as a way of demoralizing the enemy army. Often, the stake was placed to specifically penetrate the victim's anus or vagina, just to add a blatant sexual component to their pain and embarrassment.

This is a fatal wound: anyone injured like this is dying or already dead.
