Click on variables and then click "make new variable". If you want to see the most basic health bar tutorial, see mine: http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/adriangl/652390

Re: How do you make one of your characters have health?
First create a variable and name it something along the lines of "Health".
To do this click "Variables" "New variable" and then type the name in 
Next, add this script.
"When green flag pressed"
"Set health to (choose number, 100 is a good starting point)"
Then add this to the bottom of that script piece.
"Forever if" (Here's where you add what damages your sprite, in this example the colour blue is harmful) "Touching blue"
"Change health by -(number of how much health is lost each hit. 1, 2, 10 etc: )"
If you want more I will try and upload a project as it does sound confusing
