First Post
Temporary hitpoints are added to your normal hitpoints. if you take damage, the damage comes from your temporary hitpoints first, until you run out of temporary, then the damage is applies to your normal hitpoints.
So if you have 100 hitpoints and 20 temporary, and take 6 damage, you'll be at 100 regular and 14 temporary. If you then take 15 damage, you'll be down to 99 regular hitpoints, and no temporary hitpoints left.
Once temporary hitpoints are gone, you can't heal them back.
If you gained 20 temporary hitpoints while you were at 37 out of 100 hitpoints, you'd then be at 57 out of 120 hitpoints. So, no, they don't actually heal anything.

If you get X temporary HP, both your current HP and your maximum HP increase by X.
If you get damage during this time, it decreases your current HP as normal, and the temporary points are lost "first".
If you are healed during this time, current HP increases as normal, but the temporary points are healed "last". [This part may be subject to interpretation, however I think this way is more favorable]
Once the duration of those temporary HP expires, your current HP decrease by the amount of temporary HP left if any, and your maximum HP decrease by X.
edit: also the part about max HP may be subject to interpretation

"When a character gains temp hps, note his current hp total. When temp hps go away, character's hps drop to his current hp total. If the character's hps are below his current total at the time, all temp hps are already gone & the character's hp total does not drop further."
