Leveling Up
"Leveling up" is the process your character goes through every time you gain a level. An increase in level is a big deal – your character gains a powerful new ability, as well as becoming more resilient and skilled. There are a few steps to leveling up a character. You can take these steps in whatever order is most beneficial – if there is a prerequisite you would meet with one step of the leveling process, you meet that prerequisite at another step of the leveling process even if those steps are "out of order" as listed here.

Increase Hit Points and Saving Throw Bonuses
Whenever you level up, your maximum hit points increase by the number given in your character class entry plus your KDM. For example, a barbarian gains 12 hit points plus the barbarian's Constitution modifier at every new level.
Whenever you level up, set your base saving throw bonuses to the values listed on the table for your character class for your new level.
