It is a natural occurrence that people heal while they sleep. Therefore, it would be natural to assume that an injured party member would heal during the night (or whenever they slept during the adventure). The roll defined below allows for the "natural" effect of a body healing over time. Characters with a higher constitution will naturally heal faster. But there is the chance that an infection, or some form of set back, could happen. Therefore, I have always offered this as an option for each player to decide.
If a character does not take damage during a night and rests 'normally', he/she may attempt to recover lost hit points by a d20 roll:
Points recovered = (d20 - Constitution) / 2
