Deafened Condition - D&D Portal Wiki

What It Is

Deafened is a condition: a temporary game state that changes a creature's capabilities.

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

Apply deafened when a spell, feature, monster, hazard, or ruling imposes it. Track the duration or the rule that ends it.

Limits And Rolls

You cannot hear.
Checks that require hearing fail automatically.
The condition itself is not a roll; the effect that causes it tells you whether to roll an attack, saving throw, ability check, or nothing.
