Enervation / Energy Drain and Orc Bloodline / Blood Havoc


Rules Questions

Is the negative levels from Enervation "damage" that gets the Orc Bloodline +1 and/ or Blood Havoc +1 per die bonus (with necromancy focus)? (I don't think dragon bloodline would affect it, but maybe there's a necromancy dragon blood?)

I mean, we're rolling dice. Is it "damage"?

So is Enervation 1d4+1 (or +2) and Energy Drain 2d4+2 (or +4)?

I can't seem to get to where they are damage, but it seems like they are a damage type of some sort.

Hmmm... after looking at it more, it seems you "bestow negative levels" as a CONDITION. Not damage. So the answer seems to be no.

Energy drain isn't damage, and the health loss from losing max health (both from something like a negative level or from say dropping rage or bear's endurance running out) is not damage either.
