[QUOTE="S'mon, post: 2276902, member: 463"] In 1e let Wishes add hit points, up to the maximum a character could have rolled, so that's a potential way around permanent damage - in fact with 3e I'd probably let a real 5000 XP Wish give +1 hp/level*, 350 XP Limited Wish +1 hp. *Before you ask, Craig, I know your Thrinians are loaded down with confetti-like Rings of Wishes from 1e modules. Those are only giving +1hp tops. >:) I tend to see a permanent-damage creature NOT AS SOMETHING YOU SHOULD BE FIGHTING. I'm not sure why this concept is so hard to grasp. Maybe it's a 3e thing. In 1e Legends & Lore, Death gets 10 attacks/round, auto-kill on a hit, no save. So... don't fight him. It's still worth statting such creatures, and there are ways to beat them - dead magic zones, spells etc. Don't see it as an "orc with bigger numbers" waiting in a dungeon for PCs to find & kill.
