Constitution
Constitution measures a character's fitness, health and physical resistance to hardship injury and disease. Constitution is important to all characters because it affects hit points. Wizards and sorcerers gain further benefits from a high Constitution as it helps to prevent their spells from being disrupted if they are hit in battle.
Constitution affects the modifier a character uses for hit points (how much damage you can take before dying), fortitude saving throw (resisting the effects of poison etc) and chances of ignoring a blow that might interrupt a spell being cast.
