Like Hit 1 is a bruise, Hit 2 a couple of broken bones, Hit 3 some stinging because of how light it was, Hit 4 chopped off their leg, and so on.Magic making them healthier would explain why a morningstar to the face could instantly kill them when they started out, but much later on is barely a scratch; the magic itself eats most of the damage, reducing the actual physical damage they take. Of course, someone who gets scratched enough is still going to die... just a lot more painfully than the guy who got his face bashed in on the first blow.Your answer doesn't explain how the healing mechanics can have someone sit down, take a breather, and literally heal wounds. Magic infusing the body? Explains that just fine. Their body recharged a bit of magic, the magic healed them. And since we have spells that literally allow magic to heal you directly, it's not outside the established mechanics.And you can be as snotty as you want, but it doesn't make the nonsense you posted have any logical basis.It really doesn't help that, with DnD, "a wizard did it" is often actually true.</blockquote>
