House Rules


Potions

A potion can be consumed as a Bonus Action during combat if you have specifically prepared it beforehand โ€” tucked in a sleeve, clipped to a belt, that sort of thing. Otherwise, drinking a potion costs a full Action.

Resting

A Short Rest takes 10 minutes.

A Long Rest takes 8 hours. In the wilderness, a long rest requires:

Item Cost Notes
Camping Set 50 gp Reusable โ€” but roll a d20 after each use. On a 1, the set is destroyed.
Provisions 10 gp Consumed on use.
Inn (alternative) 20 gp Roof, bed, no d20 drama.

Death Saves

No Critical Failures or Critical Successes on Death Saving Throws. Dying is serious enough without the dice making it theatrical.

Inspiration

You may spend an Inspiration Point after failing any roll to reroll it with Advantage.
