D&D 5E Out of the Abyss OOC

[MENTION=11146]CanadienneBacon[/MENTION] Who is closest to where Buppido approaches? Also, Raza is waiting until Buppido either steps on a caltrop or makes it through the caltrops before acting. What she does depends on what happens next.

Brinn is closest. Buppido approaches from the rear, and ya'll were forced to camp in single file in march order in the narrow tunnel.

You're waiting for me. I took some time this weekend. And now we are snowed in, with schools closed today...though, once a plow comes through my lane, I'll be going in to the office.

With the darkvision rules as they are, I'm surprised even the drow and derro don't normally use light sources, since they have disadvantage on all their perception checks!

Good choice of spell, GlassEye!

To my knowledge, there is no mechanic for Perception (or other) checks to wake up while a character is asleep. I skimmed the PHB sections on rest and abilities this morning before I left for work. Didn't look in the DMG. Had to choose between gaming and a shower and, sorry, a shower wins every time.

I suspect there's no mechanic at all for rousing from sleep (3.x had something like -10 to your Listen check to hear a sound while sleeping). For now, until I can get home and dig a bit more, I leave it to you individually to decide whether your character is a light or heavy sleeper, and whether your character heard Raza call for Brinn just now.

Go for it.

Having one's name yelled loudly, like in this situation, would probably require different rules than for, say, if Raza had been asleep too and Brinn's passive perception was being applied against Buppido's Stealth check..

which is my way of saying that IMHO a loud yell is probably going to awaken everyone in the group!
