Temporary Hitpoints

[Brace Cormaeril]

My current hp total is 10, and I gain 10 temporary hit points.
I'm hit with 31 points of damage.
Do I die?

I'm suspecting a trick question here, but yepparooni - you're now at -11 hit points; you're dead.

Yes. Why is there any doubt?

Trick Question

That's assuming your "current 10 hps" is also your Max hps.

If the person in question is epic......

 

[Mercule]

Based on the information available, yup. Git yerself a pine box.

Do I die?

10 + 10 = 20.

20 - 31 = -11.

So yep, you're dead.

If the person in question is epic......

Then he'd be epically dead.

I guess the question is, whether any 'excess damage' when the temporary hit points are depleted by a hit will then be applied to the regular hit points.

Yes, it is.

[Aramis Simara]

No.
You're still alive your character is dead.

 

[Thanee]

No.
You're still alive your character is dead.

But the character isn't hit for 31 damage...

Bye

Let's hope this player is at least a level 3 barbarian or has a huge con bonus
