I only bring this up because I've always had a problem with the -10 HP not scaling with levels, so once you have a guy over level 8 who gets to enough HP to potentially go into Death's Door, things are so lethal that the chance he will actually spend any time in the state between "Dying" and "Dead" are very small. Should this be mitigated with a house rule, or should we not bother? -Slitherrr

It scales by giving you lots of hit points per level. I'll be happy to take some of your hit points from the positive side and put them in the negatives. -gm
