D&D 5E [OOC] Uller's Out of the Abyss

[Uller]

Okay...all the NPCs are at full hp. Sarith has 2/3 HD remaining and Derendil has 3/6. [MENTION=6801671]SunGold[/MENTION] and [MENTION=6776182]JustinCase[/MENTION], when you get a chance, put how many HD you have in the google doc the way DMAesh did.

I double checked the rule...you gain half HD (round down, minimum 1) so 3rd level characters get one HD back on a short rest.

I'm going to post a map of this dungeon. Fights will remain TotM though, for now (I prefer TotM to gridded combat, even at the table...but when fights get complex enough I have been known to switch on occasion).

 

[DMAesh]

Sounds good. The map will be nice to help us visualize...

 

[SunGold]

I'm confused. I thought we just long rested?

 

[DMAesh]

I think they short rested, just in case things happened, then we got a long rest...

 

[SunGold]

Maybe? Kinda seems like a waste of HD.

Speaking of, could you please put my HD on the Google sheet, Aesh? 3/3. Sorry, but it's annoying on my phone so I never use it. I track everything on my RG post.

 

[DMAesh]

Yeah, but we did not know that we were going to be safe, and I think it makes sense that they would not want to take that chance.

I will update you HD, no prob! ^_^

 

[SunGold]

Thanks. We should all have 3/3 anyway IIRC.

Last time any PCs used HD was right after the hook horror fight. We were 2nd level, so even if we had 0/2 there...

Long resting at Ploop's camp restored 1, so now 1/2. Leveled during that rest, so now 2/3 (unless you want want to count the one we gained for leveling as already "used").

Long rested just now, so 3/3.

 

[DMAesh]

Eh, I was just being safe and considering that the leveled HD was an empty HD, and needs to be filled. But if the DM wants to let that one be added on as "unused" I am okay with putting it up at 3/3.

 

[SunGold]

Yeah, the rules aren't really clear on that.

I interpret it as being unused since the hp gained when you roll said HD at level don't actually get added to your current hp, but rather, to your maximum. You still have to rest to fill up the new hp, so it's not like you've gained any healing from it when you level. Hence, IMO, unused.

Still fuzzy enough for a DM's call, though.

 

[DMAesh]

Yup.
