comment Beyond hit points: injury in D&D
That's how I prefer to see hit points too. They're less about health and injury than they are about stamina and exhaustion.

Would it not be better to have plot-relevant choice of injury, rather than random?

In time, perhaps we will move to a more advanced game. For now I'm just after a simple addition to the D&D everyone knows.

Giving them a fortitude save makes the effect seem less unfair, and also give the DM the freedom to trigger the effect more often (since only some of them stick).

comment Beyond hit points: injury in D&D
I like this bit: "Hit points heal fast. Conditions take treatment and time." I also like that there's no single table of all possible effects, since it gives me the freedom to come up with plot-specific ones. On the other hand, a guide to what penalties are fair would stem accusations of DM bias.

This is about right. There can be a variety of different triggers, some resulting in more serious injuries than others - for example, suffering a critical hit, reaching zero, critically fumbling etc.

Interesting. I don't know a lot about 4e or its disease system, so this wouldn't have occurred to me. I'd probably want to simplify it a bit.

Replacing hit points entirely is more of an overhaul than I'm after, or could get away with.

comment Beyond hit points: injury in D&D
I'd prefer an effect that prompts them to change their playing style, such as temporary stat penalty or inability to cast spells, rather than just "you're out". That doesn't make for fun.

comment Oriental-themed characters in Pathfinder
That's exactly what I was thinking: find a set of base classes, variants, traits and flavourful items that approximate to each archetype.
