Resurrection question

[Yamo]

At what point is a dead character that Resurrection Healing is applied to considered "officially" alive again? It is the point when BODY becomes positive again (i.e. at least 1), or the point when BODY is restored to greater than negative its starting value?

If the latter, if the character is considered alive again, but with negative BODY, does he immediately begin "bleeding to death" all over again?

To clarify: Fighter Tom has 10 BODY. An ogre whacks him with a huge sword and reduces him to -15, killing him. Cleric Bob throws a Resurrection Healing spell at Fighter Tom that restores 7 BODY. Is Fighter Tom considered to be still dead at -8 BODY, alive at -8 BODY and bleeding to death again, or alive and "stable" at -8 BODY?

Thanks.

He is alive, with -8 BODY. He does not start “bleeding to death”; the Resurrection effect is considered to have “stabilized” him just like any other form of healing successfully applied.
