Your consitution score is part of what defines your maximum hit points (except for things like temporary hit points, etc). If your Con drops, naturally, your maximum hit points drop. I don't see any precedent in the system, even in 3.0, that a drop in Con deals hit point damage beyond your maximum.Take a wizard with a full array of spells, for example. Intelligence is part of what defines your maximum spellcasting capacity for a wizard. If his Int drops enough, he'll lose some bonus spell slots. If those slots have already been cast from though, he doesn't lose those bonus slots _and_ lose some unused normal slots simply because the slots he lost were used already. His maximum spellcasting capacity simply decreases for the day. He would still have his normal spell slots, but not those bonus spell slots.I'm not ignoring the example stating that Mialee is fully healed at the time of her Con loss. I just haven't seen any substantial evidence that I've got this all wrong yet.</blockquote>
