Appendix PH-A

Conditions alter a creature’s capabilities in a variety of ways and can arise as a result of a spell, a class feature, a monster's attack, or other effect. Most conditions, such as blinded, are impairments, but a few, such as invisible, can be advantageous.

A condition lasts either until it is countered (the prone condition is countered by standing up, for example) or for a duration specified by the effect that imposed the condition.

If multiple effects impose the same condition on a creature, each instance of the condition has its own duration, but the condition’s effects don’t get worse. A creature either has a condition or doesn’t.

The following definitions specify what happens to a creature while it is subjected to a condition.

SRD5 Conditions[edit]

17 SRD5 conditions


Blinded[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition


Charmed[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition

  • A charmed creature can’t attack the charmer or target the charmer with harmful abilities or magical effects.
  • The charmer has advantage on any ability check to interact socially with the creature.


Dazzled[edit]

[2] 5th edition condition

The most common occurrence of being dazzled is when a creature moves suddenly from one light level to another (i.e. from dim light to bright light) a creature is dazzled until the end of their turn.


Deafened[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition

  • A deafened creature can’t hear and automatically fails any ability check that requires hearing.


Exhaustion[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition
Some special abilities and environmental hazards, such as starvation and the long-­term effects of freezing or scorching temperatures, can lead to a special condition called exhaustion. Exhaustion is measured in six levels. An effect can give a creature one or more levels of exhaustion, as specified in the effect’s description.

Level Effect
1 Disadvantage on ability checks
2 Speed halved
3 Disadvantage on attack rolls and saving throws
4 Hit point maximum halved
5 Speed reduced to 0
6 Death

If an already exhausted creature suffers another effect that causes exhaustion, its current level of exhaustion increases by the amount specified in the effect’s description.

A creature suffers the effect of its current level of exhaustion as well as all lower levels. For example, a creature suffering level 2 exhaustion has its speed halved and has disadvantage on ability checks.

An effect that removes exhaustion reduces its level as specified in the effect’s description, with all exhaustion effects ending if a creature’s exhaustion level is reduced below 1.

Finishing a long rest reduces a creature’s exhaustion level by 1, provided that the creature has also ingested some food and drink.


Frightened[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition

  • A frightened creature has disadvantage on ability checks and attack rolls while the source of its fear is within line of sight.
  • The creature can’t willingly move closer to the source of its fear.


Incapacitated[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition


Invisible[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition

  • An invisible creature is impossible to see without the aid of magic or a special sense. For the purpose of hiding, the creature is heavily obscured. The creature’s location can be detected by any noise it makes or any tracks it leaves.
  • Attack rolls against the creature have disadvantage, and the creature’s attack rolls have advantage.


Paralyzed[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition


Petrified[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition


Poisoned[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition


Prone[edit]

[SRD5 OGL][1] 5th edition condition
Also see: Movement - Being prone and Attack - Knocking prone

  • A prone creature’s only movement option is to crawl, unless it stands up and thereby ends the condition.
  • The creature has disadvantage on attack rolls.
  • An attack roll against the creature has advantage if the attacker is within 5 feet of the creature. Otherwise, the attack roll has disadvantage.
