health pool

Damage capacity indicator

A health pool is a video game character's total capacity for damage before death, typically displayed as a numerical value or bar.

When enemies attack, the health pool depletes; when it reaches zero, the character dies.

Some games feature regenerating health pools, while others require healing items or abilities.

The boss has a massive health pool—this fight will take forever.
