Vitality counter

Vitality counters are a type of counter introduced in Alpha that represents previously taken damage that can be converted back into life.
==Description==
Vitality counters first appeared on <c>Living Artifact</c> in Alpha and reprinted in various core sets up through Fifth Edition. They were originally introduced as an unnamed counter type which was later given errata to be Vitality counters. Living Artifact was an enchantment that would gain a Vitality counter for every piece of damage dealt to the player. Then during upkeep, an ability could be activated to gain +1 for each Vitality counter removed.
