SQL Table Definition

I'm trying to make a database for a TTRPG (Fate, if you're wondering and am trying to figure out how to handle one specific part of the database. Fate characters have both stress (plot armour) and consequences (long-term harm). My issue is that stress is a numeric (a character has X number of stress boxes) and consequences are textual (it's a short phrase describing the injury). I currently am thinking that I need 2 tables: one for stress and one for consequences (as their enherit datatypes are different) but is there a way to have one "vitals" table (the term used on the character sheet for both stress and consequences) so I don't need to do too many joins (I already have a table for skills, aspects, stunts, and basic character stuff like name, etc). Thoughts?

❔ Can I serve a static file using a wildcard route?

What I want to do is map a URL to a static file. I have a character.html file that has the JS to fetch the character info from the DB but I want to have the user navigate to /character/{character_id} but still server the static file. Can I do that somehow with app.UseFileServer() or do I need to have a lone route that returns an HTML file? If so, what does that look like?

❔ Filter a ConcurrentDictionary

I have a ConcurrentDictionary that I'm using for a small in-memory cache and I'm wondering what the best way to filter items out of it. one of the fields on the value stored in the dictionary is a DateTimeOffset expiration time and I'm still new to using it. Currently, I'm using .Select() to filter out the expired items and casting it back to the Dict, overwriting the existing variable with a new one:

_cache = (ConcurrentDictionary<string, UserCacheItem>)_cache.Select(item => item.Value.Expiry > DateTimeOffset.Now);

_cache = (ConcurrentDictionary<string, UserCacheItem>)_cache.Select(item => item.Value.Expiry > DateTimeOffset.Now);

Is there a better way to do this?
