Naberius' Fast healing, how does it work?

[Zeful]

As the title suggests, how does Naberius' Fast Ability Healing work? It says:

It heals 1 point in each damaged ability score every round, and 1 point in all drained ability scores every hour. But what does that mean exactly?

Is it:
Bob the 1st level human binder with the following stats:
Str:18
Dex:18
Con:18
Int:18
Wis:18
Cha:18

and takes ability damage so his stats look like this:
Str:10
Dex:17
Con:11
Int:15
Wis:18
Cha:4
would he heal 1 point to a single abilty score every round and 1 to every one every hour or something else I don't understand

[Arbitrarity]

Probably heal 1 pt of all abilities in a round, seeing as that's how normal ability damage is healed.

[Yechezkiel]

and 1 point in all drained ability scores every hour


You got it.

My brother pointed out that the phrasing isn't consistant.

The one point a round is for ability damage.
The one point an hour is for ability drain...

I think I figured it out.

The one point a round for each ability damaged is for ability damage (which by it's nature is temporary)
The one point an hour for each ability drained, (which is permanant)

I looked up the diffences between Ability drain and damage and noticed the permanant/temporary thing.

Since it makes a distinction bewteen damaged and drained, obviously you have to take that into account.

If Un-lucky the Rogue has stats like this:

Str 8
Dex 18
Con 14
Int 16
Wis 11
Cha 12

And then simultaneously triggers a poison trap that deals 4 con damage, and another poison trap and takes 2 dex damage, and then gets jumped by a vampire (who cimply bites and runs) and takes 2 points of constitution drain.
Now Un-lucky's stats appear as such:

Str 8
Dex 16
Con 8
Int 16
Wis 11
Cha 12

After 2 rounds:

Str 8
Dex 18
Con 12
Int 16
Wis 11
Cha 12

And then an hour later, the last 2 Con points come back. So the trick is keeping track of how the character loses the points in the first place.

Isn't two hours? The whole 1 point an hour thing?

[Arbitrarity]

Yes, it is. Minor error, but otherwise a solid comparison.

Thanks guys
