We had a question come up in my game last night and I couldn't figure out the answer to. What is the difference between temp. negative level and a permenant negative level. when a Vampire bites you you gain negative levels (permenant) but you still make a save do you only get that one save or do you get a save each 24 hrs.
Temp negative levels allow you a save each day ? I am confused can anyone help?
Permanent means it's here to stay - you need to remove it via Restoration etc.
Temp means you make a save at the end of the day to stop it becoming permanent.
A character with Temporary negative levels receives a new saving throw each day to remove them.
A character with Permanent negative levels don't receive new saving throws, and must use other means to remove them, such as the restoration spell.

So if they recieve a temporary neg level they can continue to attempt to save each day until they remove it? or once they miss it become permenant?
Yes. However, many effects that bestow temporary negative levels specify that those negative levels become permanent if you fail the save after the first 24 hours (the energy drain spell, for instance). In such cases, you don't get further saves to remove them.

Ok so it depends on what the description of the power states. thanks for the help
