Your character’s [[Hit Points]] define how tough your character is in combat and other dangerous situations. Your [[Hit Points]] are determined by your [[Hit Dice]] (short for Hit Point Dice). At 1st level, your character has 1 Hit Die, and the die type is determined by your class. You start with [[Hit Points]] equal to the highest roll of that die, as indicated in your class description. (You also add your [[Constitution]] modifier) Record your character’s [[Hit Points]] on your character sheet. Also record the type of Hit Die your character uses and the number of Hit Dice you have. After you rest, you can spend Hit Dice to regain hit points.
