Paralyzed Condition - D&D Portal Wiki

What It Is

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

Limits And Rolls

You are incapacitated and cannot move or speak.
You automatically fail Strength and Dexterity saving throws.
Hits from within 5 feet become critical hits.
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.
