It might be a slight improvement to the game if the health status changed colors to suit your condition.

Examples:

Conan is a Male Human Adept Berserker. He looks strong, wise, fast, and average looking. In one hand he holds a Blade of Honor. He is a Founder (Twilight of the Gods) of Unrestrained Abnormality and he is in a healthy condition.

Ah, I like it. As in most other games, decreasing health is shown in progressively different colors like this. Good stuff Kharybdis, good stuff.

I was also wondering why a crit with 300+ hp that is down 1 hp is said to be slightly wounded...i thought healthy (green) ought to be for about 1/20 or 1/30 hp...
