However, as its name implies, its not a substitute, merely a stopgap. This spell will temporarily restore a number of hitpoints for the target, allowing them to function as if they were healed normally. However, once the spell expires or is otherwise cancelled, all HP healed by this spell is inflicted as damage.If a person benefiting from this spell is damaged by a cause wounds spell, then this spell will be cancelled. Multiple castings of this spell are not cumulative, the recipient benefits only from the higher total.A person who would be brought to zero hp or less by cancelling this spell may make a DC 20 fortitude save to remain at 1 hp.</blockquote>
