[QUOTE="Blackbrrd, post: 4281610, member: 63962"] I think you can portray lasting damage as the semi-permanent loss of healing surges. It works out much better than anything in 3e would do. (hs = healing surge from now on) Let us say you fighter has 11 hs to start with. In two of the encounters he goes down. He has spent 8hs. In addition you could say that two of those healing surges aren't coming back before he can rest properly for x amount of time. If you are playing a fighter that is down to 5hs a day because he is so hurt, you are feeling it. At the same time, he can still function. The same goes for weariness: you have traveled for 2 weeks without stop, well then all of you remove 2 healing surges each. You are just plain tired. The beauty of removing hs is that the max hp, bloodied, the dying point etc of a character isn't affected, but it affects his staying power anyway, you can "force" characters to take a real breather.
