I need to figure out how to torture my main character

Well, this may be a bit, erm, too much, but you could have him start to skin him alive.

Maybe if you're looking for something less graphic, you could have him zap electric currents through him.

Go look up medieval tourture it's pretty gruesum u can prolly find a good way to nearly kill him

Here's some ideas (they're from a tv show, they're not my own ideas):

Slit the guy's forearms from wrist to elbow, being careful to avoid the veins, and let him bleed slowly.
Rip out fingernails.
Use a pair of pliers to pull teeth.

Again, these came from a tv show.

strap down his hand and take a dentist's drill to drill in to hi radial nerve

eww, i just grossed myself out

Figuring out how to torture a character is an amazingly grotesque and morbid process, but here goes:

~ Smashing kneecaps - it's a classic for a reason. Hurts like hell but recoverable.

~ Breaking fingers - again, a classic for a reason. See above.

~ Stick needles in the bottom of their feet - it's supposed to be excruciatingly painful, but again recoverable.

~ Overdose them on hallucinogens - you may need to research this one a bit, but an overdose on something like LSD can cause SEVERE paranoid hallucinations, overheating, sweating, shaking and psychological trauma. Still recoverable, and could give you some extra drama for your sequel.

~ Lots of shallow cuts on their arm, then rub vinegar/lemon juice/perfume into it - Cutting = ow. Acidity = extra pain. He even could use the dead siblings favourite brand of perfume/aftershave for an extra personal touch. And could heal with minimal scarring.

~ Dislocate their shoulders - Whack them with a baseball bat or something. It knacks, but easy enough recovery comparative to some of the others.


With more time I could probably come up with more.

As for whether they would scream, it depends on the character. Do you think they'd be the sort of character who'd stay quiet at first, out of defiance, but break down later in the process. Or the type to scream at first, then quieten down, maybe more out of exhaustion than anything else? Up to you to decide.

fill the guy with deep gashes and fill the wounds with maggots, and then sticth the wound back together. (this can also be used with bee's

strip him down, and then have him put in an ice room filled in a bath tub of ice

tortue him by taking away all of his sense one by one. Start with smell so cut his nose off, then cut off his hands for touch. After that cut off his ears to take away his hearing, and cut out his tongue, and then finally cut out is eyes. Personally i believe its better to leave the tongue annd eyes till last. The tongue second so you can hear the screams and the eyes last so you can watch the fear in them.

Have them listen to Tik Tok over and over again.

Put them in a crouching positon and then put them throuh a bar like thing that forces them to stay like that. This was an actuall torture method in medieval times. Apparently from lack of movement you lost feeling in your limbs and if pressure was tightened you could actualy start coughing up blood and combust your internal organs

So we meet again Mrs/Miss/Ms (Insert last name here)Attack first with flamethrower but have Mrs/Miss/Ms (Insert last name here)freeze it at the last moment.

i just had a genius idea!
stick a piece of barbed wire down their throat!
or dunk them in acid or even in ammonia, then electrocute 'em

Ask Bellatrix, she likes torturing people. ^_^

IDK stabb in the heart XD
