Conditions alter a creature's capabilities in a variety of ways and can arise as a result of a spell, class feature, monster's attack, or other effect. Most conditions, such as [[Conditions#Blinded|Blinded]], are impairments, but a few, such as [[Conditions#Invisible|Invisible]], can be advantageous. Conditions last until their given ending condition is met, such as a period of time or a successful saving throw, or until dispelled by some other effect such as the [[Lesser Restoration]] spell. Although multiple people can charm the same creature, they can only really be stunned once. Similarly to other effects, if a creature is affected by identical instances of a static condition, it only applies once; although their durations are tracked separately. Effects such as [[Conditions#Charmed|Charmed]] can apply multiple times as unique pairs of charmer and charmed make unique instances. Finally some conditions provide compounding effects such as levels of [[Conditions#Exhausted|Exhaustion]] combining for one greater effect. ## Conditions (A-Z) *The following definitions specify what happens to a creature while it is subjected to a condition.* --- ### Blinded While you are blinded, you gain the following effects: **Unseeing.** A blinded creature can't see and automatically fails any ability check that requires sight. **Attacks Affected.** Attack rolls against the creature have advantage, and the creature's attack rolls have disadvantage. --- ### Charmed While you are charmed, you experience the following effects: **Actions Affected.** A charmed creature can't attack the charmer or target the charmer with harmful abilities or magical effects. **Social Interactions.** The charmer has advantage on any ability check to interact socially with the creature. --- ### Deafened While you are deafened, you experience the following effects: **Unhearing.** A deafened creature can't hear and automatically fails any ability check that requires hearing. --- ### Drained X While you are drained, you experience the following effects, which scale with the number of stacks you have of the condition: **Reduced hit points.** Your Hit Point Maximum is reduced by a number equal to the stacks of this condition. **Recovering.** You lose all stacks of Drained when you finish a long rest or the spell [[Greater Restoration]] is cast on you.
