[QUOTE="FrankTrollman, post: 1145675, member: 14225"] Temporary Hit Points last as long as they say they do. Or more importantly - Temporary hit points [i]go away[/i] when they say they do. There is no "default time frame" for them to go away in. So if you cast Vampiric Touch, the hit points go away in an hour. If you cast False Life, the temporary hit points last for many hours. If you cast Aid, the temporary hit points last only a few minutes. And so on. Often temporary hit points will come from a generic ability - such as "Energy Drain" or "Ability Drain"- which has a duration of 1 hour built in. If you use Sean K Reynold's crazy-unbalanced Vampire Template level progression - the hit points don't ever go away. It is based on Ability Damage rather than Ability Drain - which means that it doesn't fall into any of the catagories with a built-in duration and doesn't list one of its own. -Frank [/QUOTE]
