House Rules
- Flanking adds +2 to attack rolls, rather than granting advantage. This increases by another +1 whenever another ally flanks. Creatures with a Passive Perception of 18+ cannot be flanked, nor can creatures who can see in multiple directions i.e. Beholders.
- The Help action requires proficiency in that skill. (For example; if you want to help an ally with a Deception check, you first need to have proficiency in that skill)
- Death Saving Throws rolled in secret (you can right click on the die in D&D Beyond and select Whisper as the option, this means only you and me, the DM, can see the roll. Or roll it physically and send me the result on Discord)
- When rolling Hit Dice (unless on a Short rest) you can ignore 1’s
- Drinking a Healing Potion as an Action grants you the full benefits of the potion, as a Bonus Action you roll the HP as normal. Administering any Potion to an ally is an Action.
- Drawing and Stowing a weapon is a free action
- If you have the Dual Wielder feat, you can use your action for both the Main Hand and Off-Hand attack
- Character Backgrounds have a proficiency, feat or similar attached to them.
- When a Monster drops below half HP they’re considered Bloodied. When they’re below 10% HP they’re considered Mortal.
- Grease is flammable, any creature in the area subjected to fire takes an additional 1d6 fire damage.
- Attuning to an item only takes 1 Action rather than 1 hour. Un-attuning takes 1 minute.
- If you fail a Death Saving Throw and then are healed, you suffer 1 point of Exhaustion. This only happens once per encounter.
- If you drink a potion whilst under the effect of a different potion, you trigger a Wild Magic Surge and suffer 2d6 points of psychic damage.
- If a reaction spell such as; Shield, Counterspell, Absorb Elements, Silvery Barbs etc. is cast during the process of casting a spell on your turn, this will interrupt the casting and the spell will fail. For example; you cast Fireball, an opposing Magic User casts Counterspell, if you return with another Counterspell then Fireball will fail as the casting was not complete. This can be avoided with the Subtle Spell Metamagic (as long as the spell doesn't have a Material Component)
- Material Components that are 100gp or below can be taken off of your gold total. Anything higher will have to be found (bought, stolen, looted etc.)
- The Haste spell also works on Spellcasters, provided they only use the extra attack for a cantrip.
