D&D 5E Perception and Awareness

[Sadrik]

Please answer these situations. Answer with actual game rules not house rules. If there is a grey area please note that. If there are certain situations that do not apply use NA. If there are possible other senses that I am missing please add. Looking to have this be the definitive one stop perception and awareness thread. Thanks,

Edit: On second thought there is little value here.

I'm sorry, but what exactly are you asking? This looks like a list of perceptual abilities with lists of situations; are you asking whether someone is visible under those conditions? The answer is pretty much going to be "ask your DM"; 5e has intentionally vague rules for stealth and the like. I don't think you're going to find a lot of solid answers here, just lots of opinions.

Is there a gold star for answering this extensive plethora of questions correctly?

Long list of words.... no actual questions...

 

[Sadrik]

I will take my own stab at these tonight.

I think this is a thought experiment. Like: if a tree falls in a forest with heavy obscurement...
