Why do we really need HP to represent things other than physical injuries?

[QUOTE="steeldragons, post: 5828000, member: 92511"] Fun! Lessee...off the top of my head? "Londar raced forward, placing himself between the dread wyrm, Crimsaw, and his fellow adventurers. The dragon's huge toothy maw snaps forward and catches Londar, below his shield, around the waist and crunches down. Londar hollers out in pain as Crimsaw lifts the warrior into the air and casually tosses the warrior in his enchanted platemail aside like a rag doll. Londar lands with a clanging thud, his magic broad sword clattering noisily beside him (*but still within reach). The pain is immense, not just from the severed skin where one of the teeth sank between his breast and back plates, the torn and bruised muscles for the force of the bite, but the jarring hard landing on the rocks of the cavern that made up the dragon's lair. Londar fights through his momentarily blurred vision and looks for his weapon. Londar grabs his sword and rises. Unsteady at first, but easily within a few bounds of the massive beast (*he can easily attack again on his turn). Alicia, the priestess, sees the blood seeping from between the plates, down his leg and the gash in the side of his face for his harsh landing as the dragon's attention turns to the companions who were behind the warrior. Crimsaw opens its mouth and with a hissing roar in their direction, the party sees the beginning of glowing in the back of its throat. Alicia raises her arms in a frantic invocation for her god's grace to protect her and her companions from the ravages of the wyrm's expected firy breath. Londar leaps back toward the dragon's neck... Roll to hit..." [/QUOTE]
