Or possibly: "When determining the number of negative hit points a character can take before it dies, add its bloodsworn reaver class levels to its Constitution score."
Sounds much better.
EDIT: Or I will base the wording of that ability on Heart Of The Wilderness alternate human racial trait.

And in my own drawer I found a package of pencil leads fitting the mechanical pencil I am using for some time and the second mechanical pencil that I found in one of the drawers a few days ago. I don't remember putting those leads into the drawer... Could they appear there due to quantum tunneling from other timeline?
Also, I have just learned that in English mechanical pencil cores are called leads.

There was a British made for TV film version where it was based in a Glasgow council estate.
How everyone, hope the Monday sees you in fine fettle.

I remember a British two-part TV version where it was London gangsters. I think either Steven Mackintosh or Christopher Ecclestone played Macbeth.

Yeah, I remember that too, it was very good. This one was on BBC2 and more of 'educational' type Shakespearian thing, though that belies the interesting nature.

Links that showed up in my twitter-timeline I won't re-link here #1: 1930's Soviet alphabet with pornographic illustrations.
No, no. There's no need to thank me.

We're really hoping this means he'll be potty trained before new baby comes along.

Anyway, the Oregon trip was wonderful. We had great weather: consistently 80* (27*C) and no humidity. This was while NY was in a miserable heatwave, which I was delighted to have missed.
I did indeed visit Powells City of Books (twice). The only RPG-related purchase I made was a used 2e Ravenloft accessory that I needed to round out my collection. (Van Richten's Guide to Fiends.) Man I love that place.
In general, though, I came home with quite a bit more than I left with, including some music books, dried herbs, local jellies, a bottle of wine, etc etc.
We went to every garden imaginable and John was in his glory. He could not believe how large the plants grow there compared to the Northeast, where growth is kept in check by harsh winters. There were the Oregon Gardens, the Rose Garden, the Japanese Garden, the Chinese Garden, and probably some others.
We also went to the coast one day and it was delightfully cool. Another day we went wine-tasting at some local wineries. There was great food and great company. We did not want to leave. Now John wants to move there. I just started a job in NY, however, so that is not likely to happen any time soon. Maybe someday.
It was great visiting with my family. My brother's kids are adorable (2 and 5 years old). The 5-year-old wept uncontrollably the night before we were flying home. Poor little guy.
It was also good to see my mother. She is doing quite a bit better than the last time I saw her, physically and emotionally. One evening we did a bunch of baking, and I think she was really glad to have a chance to do that.
I am still a bit jet-lagged. It's always the worst flying East.
