What It Is

Rests collects related rest rule references in one place.

This page is a compact play reference. If a spell, feature, monster, item, or DM ruling gives a more specific instruction, use that specific instruction.

How To Use It

Open a specific reference below when a class feature, spell, item, monster, or ruling points to it.

Limits And Rolls

  • These pages are quick references, not full character options.
  • Specific rules override the general reference when they conflict.
  • You only roll when the rule, DM, spell, item, or feature asks for a roll.
