Vampire A with 1 blood and fortitude attempts a bleed and is blocked
by vampire B with 3 blood and a flamethrower (2R agg, each strike).
Methuselah A plays Trap in an attempt to send vamp B to torpor at the
end of the combat.
A strikes for 1 hand damage, B strike for 2 agg damage.
A plays Undead persistence to avoid torpor, but still takes
one damage which he heals with blood. B heals his one damage.
A now has 0 blood. B has 2.
Next round. A takes 2 agg, B takes 1 hand damage.
Is A burned (having taken agg damage that he can heal, namely the
second point), or is he alright to continue?
If A is alright to continue, after the round:
A has 0, B has 1.
Next round: A has 0, B has 0.
Next (and final) round:
A has 0, B has 0 and goes to torpor.
Is A now burned, or simply goes to torpor?
Thanks.

I asked WotC a Q about this earlier.
I believe ruling was that the vampire is burned(mainly b/c undead persistence
prevents the vamp from going to torpor, not being burned).

Fine so far.

A had 0 blood and took 2 aggravated damage, so is burned outright. A is
never sent to torpor, so the Undead Persistence can't save it.

I think the original poster meant that A can prevent one damage; in that
case, B did only 1 aggravated damage, which has no effect on A (it
would only send A to torpor, but A is prevented by Undead Persistence).
