@willigansisland: Do you use exhaustion in your D&D games? It's a mechanic I forget to use all the time! When your character gains a level of exhaustion, you subtract 2 times the number of exhastion levels you have from the d20 roll and your speed is reduced by 5 feet per exhaustion level. If you gain 6 levels of exhaustion, your character... is no more. It's a great mechanic to use in a survival game. A monster that can give exhaustion levels could also be a very fun homebrew idea! #dnd #dungeonsanddragons #dndtok
Mind flayer from stranger things?!? Btw this is a joke

I mean, nobody’s using the updated version of exhaustion right we’re all still using the old version of exhaustion because it’s just infinitely better… right???

I had a DM who LOVED exhaustion, upcast a spell? exhaustion. action surge? exhaustion. flurry of blows? exhaustion.

"I attack the tadpole with my hand crossbow" "it's in his head?" "yes, I would like use my medicine skill to target and lobotomize the tadpole."

my absolute best was a little over a day and a half (in my 20s), so getting to 3 levels of exhaustion feels like an accomplishment in and of itself.

We have a homebrew rule that when you fall below 0 hit points and you gain hit points from a source OTHER than a short or long rest, you gain an exhaustion level, therefore it feels like there’s a consequence for going below 0 hit points and the exhaustion condition can be used in more situations

I thought of a fun feat : survivor/ wilderness training/ theater kid: when under exhaustion ignore one level, can recover 1/2 a level with short rest.

Truman Spider :
cast Flesh to Air (cousin spell of Flesh to Stone, not to be confused with Stone to Flesh) on the infected person and the tadpole should fall out harmlessly, and your friend is a skeleton until the effect wears off and their skin comes back from being Air

also about this situation, kill the party member, the worm crawls out or dies and then you revive them, is not that complicated, thats how we cured one of our own from vampirism, we killed him and ressed him inmediately

Oh we always use exhaustion, been the bane of our existence at a few points.
You're not alive until you're trekking across the mountains of Aiselandia on 4 levels of exhaustion looking for shelter.
