Temporary ability score damage is healed at a rate of 1 per 8 hours of complete rest or 2 for each 24 hours of complete bed rest.Note that if the spellcaster uses a metamagic feat which raises the level of the spell it incurs more leathal damage. Alternately the caster may choose to cast a spell as a lower level caster.Also, all healing magic is empathic and vampiric. That is, the caster takes on the wounds, fatigue, etc. of the recipient. However, is there is a scapegoat nearby that can be touched at the same time, the scapegoat receives the damage.</blockquote>
