HEALTH Special resource which represents hero's or creature's life pool, measuring for how long they are able to remain in fight. The amount of health is varied between characters. One segment of green bar represents 500 health points. Additional to it resources are TEMPORARY HEALTH (dark green) and SHIELD (light green). Taking DAMAGE and using some of the skills reduce health. When health bar reaches 0, hero is defeated and returned to the Airship, while creature just dies. Health can be recovered from various sources, while being OUT OF COMBAT slowly regenerates it. ![]() |
