Possessed

Another entity controls your body while you stay awake and aware but cannot act.

Mechanical Effects

  • · You cannot take actions, bonus actions or reactions of your own, and you cannot move of your own accord.
  • · The possessing entity controls your movement and actions on your turn, using your statistics, proficiencies and known spells.
  • · You remain aware of your surroundings and remember what is done with your body.
  • · Damage dealt to you is dealt to you, not to the possessing entity.

Triggers

Possession spells, some undead and fiends, Rift parasites, and a small number of artifacts.

Removal
