    Do commoners not go down to -9? I don’t think any session I’ve ever played bothered with caring about the peasantry, lmao

      NPCs and monsters automatically die at zero HP in DmD 5th and the editions prior that I was the DM for. There was a reminder that the DM could choose to let them go under, but the default was death on zero for non-player characters and monsters.

      Just imagine tracking death saving throws for every NPC and weak monsters…
