Quickly, Mel moves to slash one of the large rats. She hits it in the body, doing 3 damage and leaves a deep cut.
Jon follows Mel's lead, and tries to stab one of the smaller rats. He hits it in the neck, doing 6 damage, and the rat falls dead!
The large rat Mel attacked turns and scratches Mel. Fortunately, it doesn't pierce her armor.
A regular rat bites at Mel, and latches onto her leg. Its teeth don't pierce her leggings.
The final large rat leaps at Jon, and scratches Jon in the arm, doing 3 damage and leaving a small cut.

How's combat? I'm thinking HP for combat, with the status health for dynamic wounds and out-of-combat stuff.
And no, Kevak, I didn't completely ignore your suggestion. I rolled some dice to see which character would do what.
