      Well, in Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition, a regular punch from a human adult with no class or feats and 10 Strength deals 1 damage. My brother fits this description fairly well, so by that standard, my brother could punch Zuko 305 times (assuming none of the attacks are critical hits) before Zuko dies.
      EDIT: Although technically if we really are using D&D 5e mechanics, Zuko wouldn't die at that point, he would be unconscious and rolling death saves, but it would only take two more punches to actually kill him.
      So it would take my brother 307 regular punches to kill Zuko.

    In D&D 5e, my favorite way of quantifying HP is in weasel bites. One weasel bite does exactly 1 damage, so all other damage in the game can be counted in weasel bites. For example, the average commoner would die after being bit by a weasel 5.5 times (4 health until unconscious, then 1-2 critical bites for death saves based on the 50/50 dice roll).
