I had this opportunity once and thought about this, too. I think I saved, tried it, and saw that it didn't have a portrait effect. So I figured it was best left alone and reloaded. Not really that comfortable with the opportunity, but I can see the rare opportunity when it would be necessary (bratty upstart pretender younger than 16).

I just saw it used in my game against I think a child who refused revokation. I thought it was odd, but could understand if this was an intentional decision. Though I'm still wondering if it's intentional or just an oversight.

I mean, on one hand, that would be absolutely horrifying, but on the other hand, will this blind girl suddenly lose her eyes at 16?

doesn't the blinding decision only available for people over 16 ?

I think there are some regulations against depicting dead or mutilated kids at least in some countries. Censorship boards would not really approve of such a feature.

Children don't even show up with the bars over the profile picture when they're imprisoned like adults do. They have the little icon in the top left corner but otherwise the portrait is unchanged.

No I don't make a habit out of imprisoning children, I have however had women imprisoned whom gave birth in jail (which I promptly released the newborn from, I'm not a monster).

No, I've seen kids that have been castrated or blinded before 16.

I've check the files. blinding has no age restrictions but castration has and it is 16yo.

In the Strange Screenshots thread there's a picture of an event that fired for someone who'd castrated a child, saying something like 'you're a real piece of work, aren't you?'

There is a check for age, but only to show a different outcome ("you're a piece of work") for kids:
Code:
effect = {
			hidden_tooltip = {
				if = {
					limit = { age = 16}
					FROM = {
						character_event = { id = LoR.832 }
					}
				}
				if = {
					limit = { NOT = { age = 16 } }
					FROM = {
						character_event = { id = LoR.834 }
					}
				}
			}

Full decision in vassal_decisions.txt:
Code:
vassal_castrate_decision = {
		from_potential = {
			culture_group = byzantine
		}
	
		potential = {
			has_dlc = "Legacy of Rome"
			prisoner = yes
			is_female = no
			NOT = { trait = eunuch }
			host = { character = FROM }
		}
		allow = {
			prisoner = yes
		}
		effect = {
			hidden_tooltip = {
				if = {
					limit = { age = 16}
					FROM = {
						character_event = { id = LoR.832 }
					}
				}
				if = {
					limit = { NOT = { age = 16 } }
					FROM = {
						character_event = { id = LoR.834 }
					}
				}
			}
			character_event = { id = LoR.833 tooltip = "EVTTOOLTIPLoR.833" }
			add_trait = eunuch
			prisoner = no
			opinion = {
				modifier = opinion_castrated_me
				who = FROM
			}
			FROM = {
				if = {
					limit = { NOT = { trait = cruel } }
					random = {
						chance = 25
						add_trait = cruel
						hidden_tooltip = {
							character_event = { id = 38259 }
						}
					}
				}
				piety = -50
			}
			hidden_tooltip = {

					any_dynasty_member = {
						opinion = {
							modifier = opinion_castrated_family
							who = FROM
						}
					}
				}
			}
		}
		revoke_allowed = {
			always = no

		ai_will_do = {
			factor = 1

				reverse_opinion = { who = FROM value = 40 }

Have to say I have no qualms about it. As a Muslim I will tend to imprison children which are kin straight away, usually after the handy popup which says they dont have a guardian.

"dont have a guardian huh...?"
"I know just the one.....MWAHAHAHAHAAHAAA....cough"

No, I've seen kids that have been castrated or blinded before 16.

This painfully reminds me of the guy who 'won' the "The most horrifying thing you ever did" thread on the Dwarf Fortress forums (as TVTropes phrased it). Good thing I forgot the name, something with Axe in it, I believe.
