Hitpoints
From World of Dungeons - Enzykloplaedia
Hitpoints keep your hero alive, so if a hero looses all Hitpoints he will die instantly.
Hitpoints will be lowered if a hero takes damage and there are also some powerful items that drain Hitpoints whilst providing unforeseen powers. It is a good thing to watch the Hitpoints to prevent the hero from severe danger.
Your actual maximum worth in Hitpoints is calculated as follows:
Hitpoints = 3 * Constitution + 2 * Strength
This amount can be increased further by posession of items.
