12-14-07, 09:02 AM A druid in wildshape essentially has two constitution scores. If hit by something like Bloodstar or anything else that deals constitution damage or constitution drain, does a druid lose hitpoints from the change in constitution like most creatures or can I just redirect the damage to the bear's constitution only lowering fortitude saves?

One effect.
Be careful what you wild into!

*Although the effects of that Con score are not necessarily applied across the Board, depending on your DM's interpretation of certain rules, there is still only one Con score.

I saw a druid that had to wait to shape back to normal because the Con damage + loss of increased Con from wildshape form ( I forget what ), would have brought her Con below 0...which can be hazerdous to your health.

You take two CON damages, one to normal (which causes hit point loss) and one to your form's, which lowers fort saves.
