RPG Science Links: Hit Points

Just something I found interesting. Here are some links to a three-part video series discussing hit points, from the Dorks of Yore  ("RPG Science") on youtube:

RPG Science #4: Hit Points and the Body – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fp3SuwaLQwE

RPG Science #5: Hit Points and the Mind – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kH5M_f8N97M

RPG Science #6: Hit Points and Skill – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BQcXxatJfbw

The three videos together present an interesting perspective on what exactly is being abstracted by the use of hit points.
