    D&D (2024) So how do you remove disease in 5E 2024?

    Also, in the 2024 PHB, you can now drink an Antitoxin to negate the Poisoned condition for 1 hour. So just stack up on these and you are immune to disease... :)

    D&D (2024) So how do you remove disease in 5E 2024?

    Why does everything have to be magical? Sewer Plague, from the 2014 rules, is specifically nonmagical (and also includes a description on how to nonmagically recover from the disease).

    That would be great, but are there any details on that in the core rules somewhere?

    D&D (2024) So how do you remove disease in 5E 2024?

    Of course, that depends on what you classify as "the average D&D game", but I'll just quote from the 2014 SRD: https://www.5esrd.com/gamemastering/diseases "A plague ravages the kingdom, setting the adventurers on a quest to find a cure. An adventurer emerges from an ancient tomb, unopened for...

    D&D (2024) So how do you remove disease in 5E 2024?

    Under 2014 rules, you are not also "Poisoned" when you are diseased. I guess they will rewrite any monsters that cause disease for the 2024 MM to make them inflict the Poisoned condition instead, but for compatibility with 2014 monsters and third-party monsters that cause disease, they might as...

    Lesser Restoration in 5E 2014 reads: "You touch a creature and can end either one disease or one condition afflicting it. The condition can be blinded, deafened, paralyzed, or poisoned." Lesser Restoration in 5E 2024 reads: "You touch a creature and end one condition on it: Blinded, Deafened...

    Quick Tip: Using Shadowdark RPG for Sword & Sorcery gaming

    I typically allow the "lesser" fire spells such as Burning Hands and Flaming Sphere, but not Fireball as that's where I feel we are leaving Sword & Sorcery and crossing into standard "High Fantasy D&D Superhero" territory.

    Quick Tip: Using Shadowdark RPG for Sword & Sorcery gaming

    Truth be told, I've never run a Sword & Sorcery campaign, in any game system, without at least 1 PC as a magic-user. I think that even though the ("purist Conanesque") fiction doesn't have magic-users as protagonists, RPGs are a different medium and it's okay to have PC casters, as long as you...
