Nope. I've seen 5 year-olds hold their breath until they passed out, completely blue in the face. Absolutely terrifying experience for their parents.... but that is why the little horror was doing it in the first place....
Vurt said:A lot of these emotions flood the body system with adrenaline, endorphins, etc., producing physiological changes. Do these changes immediately subside when a person falls unconscious, or does it take a little time?
Well, laughter stops, tears stop, don't really know if they stop feeling morose or not....
Vurt said:Unless you're playing grim-and-gritty style rules, I do not feel this change would make for a better game. In short, and I don't mean to imply anything about your own gamings-style, I would never play a raging barbarian in your campaign. I don't think the added stress would be fun for me.
Yeah, I realise this.... Just means the Barbarian has to be a bit more picky about when he goes into rage, and needs to have the cleric nearby to paste him together before he falls apart...
