Death Saves

| d20 | Effect |
|---|---|
| 1 | The PC gains two more Scars |
| 2-9 | The PC gains another Scar |
| 10-19 | Nothing — The PC lies in agony |
| 20 | The PC regains 1 HP and is no longer Unconscious |

If a PC takes damage while Dying, they gain two more Scars.
Healing
When a dying PC's HP is restored, they wake up and are no longer Unconscious.
Stabilization
An ally can Stabilize a PC as an Action.
Dead
Dead PCs are retired from play into the hall of fame — or infamy.
A PC dies when they exceed their Max Scar Threshold and they have the Dying condition.
Note: NPCs do not get the Dying condition, they just die at 0 HP.
