The way I read the rules(guidelines), he gets; (11d10/2) + (15d4/2) + ((11+15)/2) Fighter dice^ ^ MU dice ^(CON bonus) Even if you didn't half the CON bonus (and the rules are a little foggy on this point), the MAXIMUM HP I can get from this algorithm is: 55 + 30 + 26 = 111 (and the odds of rolling 11 10's and 15 4's are ridiculous). I claim that the MAX would be: 55 + 30 + 13 = 93. Have I made a mistake? (my PH is not right in front of me) Or has Dekith done something astounding with wishes? (I can't see LE dieties granting such wishes so propitiously) Or are you playing Varient D&D (VD&D 8^)? ) Giving an evil character an extra 50 ( or so) hit points makes him pretty kick-ass, I'll agree, but where did he get them?
