My greatest injury also happens to be my only one, as I'm pretty new to adventure mode.
Yesterday I tried my first hand at adventure mode and to be honest, I played like ****. So I thought "Why not go to some settlement and try to murder everyone, it can't be that hard, right?" With this in mind I went to the nearby human settlement of.. Um.. Something, and made my way into one of them little wooden farmer homes.(On an unrelated note: Dwarven security really dwarves the human's security (pun not intended) as they left their doors wide open for every stranger and aspiring mass-murderer to come inside.)
Inside the house were three people: a. a child b. a fishery worker c. a farmer. The fishery worker was on his way out though so I decided to wait for him to leave. As he closed the door I pulled out my simple, but sturdy Bronze Spear. The Farmer and the child (I like to pretend it was his child, though I'm not really sure, forgot to ask) didn't really seem to mind me pulling a weapon in their house. I then stabbed the child once, cutting some arteries and motor nerves in his right leg, after which he promptly lost consciousness. The farmer was so shocked with my sudden outburst of violence that he couldn't move an inch. As any serial killer would do, I then ignored the child, "I could slaughter him later" my thoughts went, and I turned around and stabbed the farmer.
Little did I know that a simple reed cloak would prove such an efficient defense against spears. When my blows deflected upon his cloak one after the other, I entered an enraged state of mind, bolstering my abilities to fight but preventing me from being smart enough to run. By this time, the farmer was already fighting back and he had managed to get some solid hits, bruising both my arms and a leg. He was practically unharmed, but then he let his guard down for a moment. I immediately thrust my spear forward, tearing his hart and a lung. As he desperately gasped for air I twisted the spear around in his chest, he looked at me, his eyes begging to let him live. I put an end to his miserable life with one last, short stab with my spear.
In the meantime, the child had regained consciousness and was watching in horror as I brutally slaughtered his father. When he saw him die, something inside him snapped. Mustering all of his strength, he stood up, using his one working leg to support him. As I turned around to finish what I started, he punched me, landing a very solid right in my stomach. I stumbled backwards, surprised by his will to live and fight. I tried to lift my spear and defend myself, but the damage was too great, I couldn't help but roll over and puke. His fists showed me as much mercy as I had shown his father in his last moments. But I didn't give in, ignoring the terrible pains caused by my near-fatal wounds, I reached for my spear and stabbed the new orphan in his eye, destroying his brain and killing him.
As I looked around me, I realized that I, despite my grievous injuries, had survived the fight. But the townspeople had been alerted by the sounds of fighting, in my weakened state, I was no match for them. As they were tearing me apart, I wondered "Maybe I should've come at night, while they were sleeping."

This is a pretty accurate recollection of what happened. I wanted to get rid of my adventurer, permanently. The fight also happened mostly like in the story, I did indeed disable the kids (right) leg with my first attack. The farmer's cloak proved to be a pretty sturdy armor, but it was probably just because of my "not spearman" stat. Oh, and the kid did give me a "Mortal Wound", albeit before the farmer died (he was bleeding out, so he was "kind of dead"). I killed them both and survived. I even got rid of the "nausea" status that came with the Mortal Wound (buy one, get one for free!). So yes I survived. But when I tried to leave the town I ran into a weaver who somehow dodged all of my attacks, and smashed my head with one hit.
Never knew a kid could pack such a hell of a punch though, he wasn't even a Dwarven kid.
