That was a miscommunication on our part, it was 88 damage total.So the bottom line is that you took 55 of real damage and 33 of temp hit point damage. As if your normal hit points had doubled, similar to the hit points of a 7th level Fighter for a 1st level PC.Note: Fighting minions (which almost always do 4 points of damage at low level) instead of a BBEG (with no healing and no Second Wind, or it gets much worse) could theoretically result in 28 hits doing 31 real damage and 84 temporary hit points of damage until the PC goes to 0 hit points. As if your normal hit points had almost quadrupled, similar to the hit points of a 17th level Fighter for a 1st level PC. Granted, this would not occur in the game, but minions are not really even a minor threat to a BRV Fighter.When it comes to minions, I'm really not on the fence here. Minions were never considered by the designer of the BRV rules. He dropped the ball completely there and did not consider all of the game rules.Either way, Toughness is still 5 hit points. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f609.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=";)" title="Wink    ;)"  data-smilie="2"data-shortname=";)" />BRV is easily dozens of hit points in real game practice (33 in this example).</blockquote>
