[QUOTE="CalrinAlshaw, post: 1259508, member: 14282"] The thing I am thinking of doing. Is keeping all the rules except the saving throw or lose a level thing. For example, the first 24 hours they make a save for each negative energy level. Whatever ones they fail stay on for another 24 hours in which they make ANOTHER save for each negative energy level left. They can remove them via the correct restoration spells still and everything, but none of it is permanent. For the duration of the negative energy levels they have: -1 to all d20 rolls. (Including the roll to save every 24 hours) -5 from their max hp. And they lose access to their highest slot available for each negative energy level. (If they have 3 NEL's, and have access to a 4th and 2 3rd slots, they can no longer access those until the NEL's are removed. Gaining back the 2 3rd's and the fourth in order as if they were levelling.) Seems fair, and can be harmful to a party still. Calrin Alshaw [/QUOTE]
