making a new ttrpg where instead of the vague "hp" mechanic, it uses something much more tangible: hd, or hot dogs

@monorail i don't know if you knew this or not but this joke is made more funny by the fact that d&d already has something called hd

@hoppet lmao what is it

@monorail hit dice are a number roughly equivalent to level, with some subtle distinctions. it can be thought of as the number of dice you've rolled to determine your hp

@hoppet oh yeah i know hit dice i've just never used an acronym for them

@monorail they serve a slightly different role in 5th edition iirc so they may not use that acronym anymore

@hoppet ah yeah 5e is mostly what i've played
