Homebrew rules

**Potions** Drinking potions is managed as follows: - It takes a bonus action to drink a potion yourself. - It takes a full action to make some other creature drink a potion. - If the potion is drunk during a full action the maximum effects are administered, if it is consumed during a bonus action the player has to roll. Administering the potion on someone else does not result in the maximum effect being applied, the player administering it needs to roll. - If the person the potion is being administered to is unwilling (enemy, friendly creature that has explicitly revoked consent for this action) the administration of said potion requires an opposing STR check. The same rule applies if the potion administered is offensive (poison, toxin, other damage dealing potion). **Death Saving Throws** While a character is rolling death saving throws, they have to describe a memory they see flashing before their eyes as they are in limbo. **Critical Roles** This DM uses critical success and failure in all roles. Rolling a natural 1 will result in automatic failure and rolling a natural 20 will result in the best possible scenario for the specified situation that resulted in this roll. The player might be asked to contribute in the description of these situations. **Line of sight** if a spell does not specify that the point/creature can be seen by the caster, the spell can be cast at any point within range, even behind cover. This does not include rooms where there is no possibility to look into whatsoever.

How Markella creates a safe table

Session 0 information will be shared with all players after they join, so they can prepare for the discussion at the beginning of the game. They will also be presented with the following pre-game questions they can answer when joining the server. - Lines and Veils (as in things that would make you uncomfortable to have to face or experience, phobias, etc.) - Triggers - Issues with sound or color that might be distracting or uncomfortable - Any other things I should keep in mind? Safety signal cards are used in the game to indicate the comfort of both players and DM. The signals are used verbally in the call, usually paired with a hand-signal. **Signals** *Green:* it means everything is fine, we can keep going. It does not need to be specified. Unless indicated otherwise all players are assumed to be on a green status. The green card can be used for example in heated situations where the PC is in distress but the player is not and would like the situation to keep going. *Yellow/orange:* things are becoming uncomfortable, please take a step back. The player can but is not required to indicate which aspect of the situation is upsetting them so the DM can move forward accordingly. *Red:* The game stops immediately. *Blue:* indicates a need for a break. If it is flushed and the player removes themselves from the table it means they need a water or toilet break. If it is up for an extended period of time then the player is indicating fatigue and burn-out and the need for a break. If it is combined with the red card it means the player needs a break, needs the situation to stop and requires the DM to talk to them about it.
