He asked about 1) constant 1d8+1 every round and 2) 9 permanent hit points. He didn't say he favored 1 over 2, nor the other way around. Just about everyone on this thread immediately jumped onto the "What the hell are you thinking!?!" bandwagon without even giving any credit to the original poster.Here's another question. If a player asks, "Can I make this item?", are you just gonna tell them yes or no? Aren't you going to encourage roleplay? Think about it. The only way to find out if you can make an item is to try and make it. Now, don't get me wrong, I never screw over my players with this by having them waste all their time and money. They will at least end up with a really basic item. Though it no doubt won't be what they wanted, it will be worth some cash at least.In the end, the player does indeed have permission to try anything they want. If they want to try to research a new spell, they can. If they want to try to make a Ring of Fast Healing 13, they can. The only question is whether or not you will allow the new spell or item. Besides, it would be really strange to explain why the character feels an omnipotent presence in his mind telling him "No. It's not allowed."Basically, hardly anybody gave the original poster any credit, and few really wanted to help him either. Most were too busy making assumptions and getting all high and mighty to actually listen to him.Voneth, the original poster, never said any such thing. Rassav did.Perhaps. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f60e.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":cool:" title="Cool    :cool:"  data-smilie="6"data-shortname=":cool:" /></blockquote>
