![]() ![]() After 48 hours of rest they will be reduced to rank 2. Rank 6: After a single night of sleep the character will return to rank 4 on the Table. For every 2 nights without sleep 24 hours of rest is required to reduce Insomnia to 0. ![]() Rank 3-5: After a single night of sleep the character will be reduced to rank 2 on the Insomnia Table. ![]() Rank 1-2: After a single night of sleep the character will recover to rank 0 on the table. Recovery Time (based on the highest rank of Insomnia the character experienced) You cannot perform any task requiring proficiency and to recall information such as a password or code requires an Intelligence DC 15 check. You may not concentrate on any spell, and any task requiring you to concentrate requires a Wisdom check DC 10 or it fails automatically.ĥ: You barely keep it together. You have disadvantage on all attacks, and saving throws.Ĥ: Concentration becomes extremely difficult. You have disadvantage on all ability checks.ģ: You find it difficult to focus on anything. My recommendation would be something along the following guidelines:ġ) The first night requires no check and the character suffers no additional penalties.Ģ) On the second night onwards Wisdom checks DC 3+1/night (so 5 on the 2nd night, 6 on the 3rd etc) because it is willpower and a mental aptitude to stay awake as opposed to a physical one.ģ) For each night past the first where sleep is skipped, a Constitution check DC 8+1/night is required or the character suffers an additional level of insomnia.Ģ: You find it difficult to focus on tasks. Again these would both differ from simply trying to stay awake because they are simply trying to catch a monster at night via an ambush while maintaining their normal activities in the daytime. The main thing to consider when actively avoiding sleep is are they active or passive when doing so? If, for example, they are simply travelling through a jungle and trying to avoid sleep it'll be different to if they are racing to find a cure for a mysterious ailment. There's a reason our brains need rest cycles. Which is the long way around to say that, in addition to the saving throws, you might also consider sleep-deprivation effects expressed as things like penalties to dexterity-based activity, reductions on intelligence-based and wisdom-based checks, and similar, as well as eventual h.p. In addition, there are a growing number of studies examining the effects of sleep deprivation among medical residents assigned to 24- or 36-hour shifts on ward, and the results aren't good. ![]() However, it does suggest that sleep-deprivation is very bad for things like decision-making, dexterity precision, reaction time, and so forth. Which is not an argument for operating vehicles under the influence of alcohol. Results indicated sleep deprivation proved even more detrimental in the simulators than baseline legal intoxication (.08 blood-alcohol content in many parts of the United States). Department of Defense oversaw flight simulation studies on military pilots in which a control group was compared with a group that had blood-alcohol levels above the legal limit for operating a vehicle, and a third group that had twenty-four (or more) hours without sleep. ![]()
