Common Conditions
Pin the conditions that affect your current situation.
These are common-condition reminders. Follow the source for all details and special interactions. Penalties of the same type do not normally stack; use the worse one.
Dazed
No actions. This alone does not penalize AC.
Dying / Stable
Below 0 HP and above negative Constitution, you are unconscious. A dying creature attempts DC 10 Constitution checks to stabilize, penalized by its negative HP; failure loses 1 HP. Natural 20 succeeds.
Entangled
Half speed, cannot run or charge, −2 attacks and −4 Dexterity. Casting requires concentration DC 15 + spell level.
Exhausted
Half speed; −6 Strength and Dexterity; cannot run or charge. One hour of complete rest reduces this to fatigued.
Fatigued
