==Hit Points and Hit Dice==
Use the rules in the [[SRD5]] (summarized here)

{{SRD5|Hit Point|Hit point}}s (hp) represent, as a value, how much damage your character can sustain. Not that this is not always actual damage, but also represents fatigue and other factors.
  
{{SRD5|Hit Die|Hit dice}} (hd) represent the number of dice your character can roll after a rest to recover hit points (see {{SRD5|Rest}}) and are used to calculate your character’s hit points. 
  
At 1st level, your character has 1 Hit Die (the type of die depends on the size of your character, usually a d8). Your starting hit points equals the highest number on the die plus your {{SRD5|Constitution}} modifier (see {{SRD5|Ability Score}}s). This is your {{srd5lc|Hit Point Maximum}}. 
  
Both hit dice, hit points, and hit point maximum increase as your character gains levels (See Level and Experience Points).

==Character Size==
{{alsosee|SRD5:Size}}
A character’s {{srd5lc|Hit Die|Hit Dice}} provide the {{srd5lc|Hit Point Maximum}} that a character has as well as a limit to the healing a character can perform during a {{srd5lc|Short Rest}} (see {{SRD5|Resting}} in the SRD). {{SRD5|Hit Point|Hit point}}s are an abstraction of a character’s ability to absorb damage and will to continue (see {{SRD5|Combat}}, below and in the SRD).

'''{{anchor|Medium}}.''' Most characters are of medium size and have hit dice of d8 and occupy a 5x5 foot space. These creatures range from 3-10 feet tall or long (nose to tail). 

'''{{anchor|Small}}.''' Some characters are small, having d6 for hit dice. They also occupy a 5x5 foot space and 3 foot or less tall. Small characters can sometimes fit into areas that larger creatures cannot (or at best can squeeze into). 

'''{{anchor|Large}}.''' Some characters are large, having d10 for hit dice. They take up a 10x10 foot space. Large creatures often have to squeeze into spaces that medium creatures fit into comfortably.

'''Other.''' At the discretion of the GM, characters may be {{SRD5|Huge}}, {{SRD5|Gargantuan}}, or {{SRD5|Tiny}}. Each of these will likely have severe penalties when trying to manipulate controls and objects made for Humanoids.

|''Building Kalor''<br />
Sue confers with her GM and they decide that Kalor is medium size, so will start with a d8 for her hit dice and will have 8 hit points (plus any Constitution bonus).
