Currently (sans point 3), yes.2: At zero hp, you can "soak" an ammount of damage equal to your character level, but only from the initial attack that brings you to 0 hp.

too.]
Let's say, for sake of example, that we've got a 5th level fighter with 5 hit points left. If he gets hit for anywhere between 5 and 10 points of damage, he's at 0. If he gets hit for more than 10 points of damage, he goes negative.
If our example characer got hit for 13 points of damage, he'd lose 5 hp to be at zero, the "soak" would takeup the next five, and the three poitns that remained would effect him just as if he got hit for three points of damage while at 0 hp.
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?
He'd be at 5.
How does it apply toOur 3 hp fighter who is dealt with continuing damage of 2/round would start at 3, then go to 1, then 0, then -2.
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?
Sure. If a character dies from Constitution damage now, those spells still work--and the mechanics would be exactly the same.3: [this is the part that hasn't been tested yet] After 0 hp, allHow would you regain your consitution damage once it was all over? If you
damage you take is constitution damage. When your con reaches 0, you're dead,
as normal.
were to die because of this would a Raise Dead or Ressurection work?
