Default Re: [Basic] Disadvantage of the Week: Lifebane and Unhealing

Hope nobody minds me reviving this thread.

One issue I notice with Partial Unhealing is that it's very short on details for those rare conditions.

"You can heal naturally if a rare condition is met (e.g., when you are immersed in blood or bathed in lava)."

Okay, so is that healing at normal rate while you remain immersed in blood, for 1 HP per day? Or does the lava bath simply kick the healing faculties into gear, allowing one to heal back to full health, at which point Unhealing rears its head again?

To put it another way, is it more like Unhealing + Not Unhealing (Trigger, Lava bath), or Unhealing + Slow Regeneration (Trigger, Lava bath)?

While we're at it, can I make "able to bathe in lava to heal" a special effect of this ability, or do I also need DR 50 (Limited, Fire) to survive this? If so, is it compatible with DR (Limited, Fire; Absorption, Healing)?

I'm tempted to say one could narratively bathe in lava for this purpose without incurring harm, but that getting hurled into a volcano otherwise has its normal effects. Or conversely, that whatever triggers your Partial Unhealing should be something that already doesn't harm you for whatever reason.
