Dying
A creature gains this condition when their Body or Heads Wounds are below 0. The creature becomes Unconscious immediately. Each round, they must make a Fortitude save (DC 10) in order to remove this condition. However, they take a penalty to this check, equal to the amount of negative Wounds they have on the Head or Body (or both).

If negative Wounds in the Body or Head exceed their Constitution score (not the modifier), they gain the Dead condition.
