knockdowns
Description
Knockdowns occur when your unbalance exceeds your agility. Once you are knocked down, you will be unable to execute actions (including attacks) until you stand again. You will automatically stand when your unbalance reaches zero.

Knockdown attacks such as trip inflict a certain amount of unbalance, but may or may not actually knock them down. (An extra message following the standard attack message will indicate if they have been knocked down.) Once someone has been knocked down, you will not be able to execute knockdown attacks against them again for a while.
