Constitution is a physical stat. Constitution is generally a measure of how hardy a character is.

Constitution is a factor in determining maximum hitpoints, maximum stamina, resistance to critical hits, and resistance to disease.

Death's Sting can (temporarily) alter a character's Constitution.

Critical Padding

A constitution bonus less than zero does not confer negative critical padding. The following table shows the relationship of constitution bonus to critical padding.

Constitution Bonus 0 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 45 50
Critical Padding 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10

Per GM Naijin on Discord (05/12/2021), critical padding gained from constitution only applies to the AS/DS system.

Hitpoints

Main article: Hitpoint

A character's constitution governs the max amount of HP that can be achieved by training in Physical Fitness. Maximum hitpoints are determined by adding the race value to the constitution bonus (further modified by race) of a character.
