I mean, maybe they expect that Regeneration is going to be available in the campaign world, but my games are unlikely to go that high or have NPCs with that much power. I was thinking about using the following for lingering wounds.You suffer a lingering wound whenever you receive a critical hit. Only critical hits can cause a lingering wounds, and critical hits do not cause any extra HP damage (unless specified by another ability). When you suffer a critical hit, roll 1d20 to see what breaks: 1-3) Left Leg; 4-6) Right Leg; 7-9) Left Arm; 10-12) Right Arm; 13-18) Torso; 19-20) Head. A broken leg reduces speed by half, a broken arm cannot be used to carry anything, a broken torso requires a check to do anything, and a broken head is a KO.Then, make a Constitution save (DC 15) to determine severity. If you succeed in the save, then the effect is only temporary, and will go away after a week (or 1d4 minutes, if you were knocked out). If you fail the save, then the effect lasts until you get a Lesser Restoration.</blockquote>
