[/sblock] [sblock=House Rules] [sblock=Death and Dying]1) At 0 hp or less, you fall unconscious and are dying. Any damage dealt to a dying character is applied normally, and might kill him if it reduces his hit points far enough (see #2). 2) Characters die when their negative hit point total reaches -10 or one-quarter of their full normal hit points, whichever is a larger value. This is less than a 4th Edition character would have, but each monster attack is dealing a smaller fraction of the character’s total hit points, so it should be reasonable. If it feels too small, increase it to one-third full normal hit points and try again. 3) If you’re dying at the end of your turn, roll 1d20. Lower than 10: You get worse. If you get this result three times before you are healed or stabilized (as per the Heal skill), you die. 10-19: No change. 20: You get better! You wake up with hit points equal to one-quarter your full normal hit points. 4) If a character with negative hit points receives healing, he returns to 0 hp before any healing is applied. In other words, he’ll wake up again with hit points equal to the healing provided by the effect—a cure light wounds spell for 7 hp will bring any dying character back to 7 hp, no matter what his negative hit point total had reached.) 5) A dying character who’s been stabilized (via the Heal skill) doesn’t roll a d20 at the end of his turn unless he takes more damage.[/sblock] [/sblock] [sblock=Handouts & Role-Playing Aids] [sblock=Korvosan Slang][b][size=3]Speaking Korvosan[/size][/b] The people of Korvosa universally speak Chelaxian but have, over time, created their own slang and terminology unique to the city.
