D&D 5E (2024) How Many "Anti PC" Abilities are to Many?

I don’t like the “losing the highest level spell slot”

I’d do it a couple ways:

• lose lowest first or;
• player chooses
• the longer you’re in it, the more slots you use
• a storm has a category. So a level 1 would mean you lose one spell slot for every x time you’re in it. A category 3 means you lose 3 levels worth. Once again, not necessarily their 3rd level slot but any combo to total to 3.

this.

avoid hard CC against PCs at all cost.
it's simply anti-fun to do nothing all combat.

1 round here and there is OK, just to remind them that they need to invest in saving throws.

They exist on several casters in the MM. I've been using them as is.
