    Temporary hit points and resistance

    Thanks very much for that folks, that's the way I was hoping it would work. I'm currently playing in a campaign with only 1 other pc (a moon Druid) and need to be very resilient. I'm playing an eldritch knight and have the heavy armour master feat from being a variant human and false life...
