It wasn't me, but a boxer healing back to full overnight does not support that reality.If you die, then you fail to climb the wall. Moreover, if you're beaten within an inch of your life and likely to die by climbing that wall, then you're unlikely to make the attempt in the first place; and wasting page space on rules that aren't going to come up would be horribly inefficient. Likewise, we don't need rules for what happens when a fighter gets hit while they aren't wearing armor, because that's outside the context of the basic game assumptions.Role-playing as Legolas or Gimli is one thing. We have decades of understanding in what that entails. We know what we're getting into when we sign up for it.Nobody needs or wants an entire world where elves and dwarves also regenerate like Wolverine. That's beyond the scope of the genre.</blockquote>
