Exhaustion Rules

We have decided to run with the One D&D Exhaustion Rules, since these were easier to both understand and implement into our games. For easy reference, we will list them here. The Exhausted Condition works as follows:

EXHAUSTED [CONDITION]
While Exhausted (known in older books as Exhaustion), you experience the following effects:

• LEVELS OF EXHAUSTION This Condition is cumulative. Each time you receive it, you gain 1 level of exhaustion. You die if your exhaustion level exceeds 10.
• D20 ROLLS AFFECTED When you make a d20 test, you subtract your exhaustion level from the d20 roll.
• SPELL SAVE DCs AFFECTED. Subtract your exhaustion level from the Spell save DC of any Spell you cast.

Ending the Condition Finishing a Long Rest removes 1 of your levels of exhaustion. When your exhaustion level reaches 0, you are no longer Exhausted.
