Is there anyway to prevent rage and other constitution dropping things killing you? I can understand your hp dropping to 1 but I'm not sure you'd drop dead (or maybe you would in a last blinding fit of death.)
I once had this happen to me while I was under the influence of a sleep spell. An endurance spell wore off slipping me into death. Luckily somebody was beside me.
Is this intended or could it be scripted to leave you at one hp.
(It also sucks when your bleeding to death but thats to be expected XD)

Well, I understand that you might drop unconscious if you have hp 1 with rage. That means you're bleeding furiously, but only your adrenaline keeps you standing. Hell, there is much reason to be worried and get healed before you start to realize the pain and fall on the ground. I'd say you may not die right away, but you'd be probably damn close atleast.

I have seen dozens of movies where in some ridiculously dramatic scene a character sustains massive injuries but lives, pulls of some impressive feat of strength or kills a bunch of badguys, and then collapses and bleeds to death in his friend/lover/parent's arms, while they insist that they'll get him or her to a hospital.
Raging, getting filled with arrows, and dropping dead after killing the badguys sounds like a pretty ideal death for a kickass barbarian, if you ask me.
Besides, if your party is worth a damn, someone will save you in most cases.

I love the fact that barbarians sometimes just fall flat and die after raging.
It's half the fun of the class!

and for anyone using polymorph... this also applies to you when changing back.

I agree with the DMs!
Think of the Wookiees, Naga!

I was thinking that would be the response (songs one that is :) / But is there anyway to dispell invisibility, since you can bleed to death with people right infront of you. Its nasty.

Yar, God sent a bird to whisper in my ear IG the other day about a certain "/o c dispel invis", to use after my cat rampaged across my keyboard and stepped on the hotkey where I had put my single invisibility potion.

You can also join the pros and cast area dispel at the ground near the character that you just saw go down invisible.

Another fine example of Catch-22.

Oh also, never log when your character has low hitpoints with a wild elf or any other race that gives you a modified constitution bonus.
You'll log on with negative hitpoints

Type "/o c dispel invis".
Very handy. Read this:

It's awesome.
Edit: Wrexsoul already pointed this out, but I wasn't paying attention. And I am not a bird.
