[QUOTE="GorTeX, post: 4372348, member: 14624"] The Slowed effect and the Sleep effect are seperate (it's save ends on each of them, not save ends both). So, this is how it would go: 1. Wizard casts sleep on Orc and "hits". He rolled over the Orc's Defense. 2. The Orc is immediately slowed. 3. At the end of the Orc's turn, Orc rolls to save. 4. Orc fails and falls asleep. 5. At the end of the Orc's next turn, Orc rolls to save to wake up. [B]Orc rolls to save to end Slowed[/B] 6. Orc succeeds [B]on the wake up save, but fails the slow save[/B] and is now awake but still slowed. 7. At the end of the Orc's next turn, Orc rolls to save to not be slow. 8. If the Orc succeeds, he is no longer slowed. If the Orc fails, he is still slowed but is not back asleep. So the orc will be slowed for 1 round, and could be (depending on the results of the 2 saves..note that you only fall asleep if you fail the 1st saving throw). asleep and slowed asleep and not slowed awake and slowed Awake and not slowed [/QUOTE]
