I think nature magic should boost your HP instead of regeneration, since the regeneration bonus is bugged anyway.

Bugged? In what way? It adds +1/skill level to the basic regen value, so a crone of avalon with 8 HP that casts regen on herself should regen 1(10%of HP)+3(nature skill)=4 HP. A lamia queen with 2 nature and 20 HP should regen 10(50%regen)+2(nature skill)=12 HP. Is this not the case?

Regen from bless is 5% at godskill 4.

Edit: HP bonus has been considered in other occasions, but has been discarded. The reason is that HP adjusts slowly. A pretender doesn't get new HP when they enter a new dominion etc. Adding HP would be problematic if you trade items back and forth to increase HP, unless the curent mechanic was remade. THis is perhaps more true in the case of HP-adding items, which were considered before the release. We found some problems to it that were not easily solved. I can't remember the details, but JK had me convinced it was problematic.

But apart from that I like the idea.

Doesn't work, last time I checked-if it did, I'd use wyrms a lot more often.

Try building a wyrm with 10 nature and one with 0 nature, and see what happens to it's natural Regeneration-I'd love to be proven wrong on this, since I use Regeneration a lot.
