Wisdom

Wisdom reflects how attuned you are to the world around you and represents perceptiveness and intuition.

Wisdom Checks

A Wisdom check might reflect an effort to read body language, understand someone’s feelings, notice things about the environment, or care for an injured person. The Animal Handling, Insight, Medicine, Perception, and Survival skills reflect aptitude in certain kinds of Wisdom checks.

Other Wisdom Checks

The DM might call for a Wisdom check when you try to accomplish tasks like the following:

• Get a gut feeling about what course of action to follow
• Discern whether a seemingly dead or living creature is undead
