Physical injuries are the most common form of wounding on Gaianar. Cuts, bruises, broken bones, sword wounds, gunshot holes, are all of a physical nature.
Physical injuries deplete a player character's hit points. As long as a player character has positive hit points, he or she remains conscious, aware and able to fight, pray, run, use items, etc. At zero hit points, the player character loses consciousness, falling into a comatose state. Between -1 and -10 hit points, the character is considered to be dying from the injuries sustained.
A character at one hit point or higher can heal from physical injuries if given enough time, a character at -1 hit points of lower will absolutely die without medical intervention. The final outcome of an injured character's status depends on two sets of factors: 1.) Whether the character's current hit points are positive, zero, or negative, and 2.) Whether the character receives supernatural healing, a healing potion, conventional medical treatment, or no treatment at all.
