I also feel that doubling hp when going from level 1 to level 2 makes for a much to big power jump and makes the difference in what's challenging much to big.Typical variant rules:Not below average hp at first level, roll for later levels (I would probably go for this one)Average hp (Wizard 3, Rogue/Cleric 5, Fighter 6)Max hp at first level, roll afterwardsMax hp at first level, not below average after first levelIt might be a good idea to do as in AD&D(?), capping hp after name level (9-12th?), so you only get a small increase after that. For instance +1/level for wizard, +2 for rogue/cleric and +3/level for fighter. It would fit pretty well with the flatter math theme of 5e.</blockquote>
