Aha! In that case, you don't have to worry about that. You could even have it more like he just gets hurt a lot, ranging from constant stubbed toes to broken arms, whatever you prefer. Good news is there's ample healing magic of all kinds around, mostly from NPC/environment side of things, so he wouldn't be hurt for long if you went that route. As for death scenes, we'd explain and describe what would be expected, and will always have the option for it to be a pretend death scene instead of the real thing.

Does that help?
