Does this go to -10 still and then you're dead? Does the soaked damage
count against any healing spells? So if said fighter gets a Cure Light and
he gets back 5 points would he be at 5 or 2 hp's? How does it apply to
spells that do continual damage? So if the fighter took 2 hps from the
spell in the first round, and then 3 in the second round, would he be at
-2 or 0?

How would you regain your consitution damage once it was all over? If you
were to die because of this would a Raise Dead or Ressurection work?

If you want someone to change the world, you'd better make sure they
want to change it first.
