Technically this is a dead baby RAW

I wish my baby would cast sleep on itself.

why is it dead?

Just because they can, doesn’t mean they will. They are saving it, Baby doesn’t get many spell slots so they gotta make them count.

Commoners have 4hp. So, for reference, 4 successful baby scratches drops an average, normal person to zero HP and they are rendered unconscious and have about a 40% chance of death if they don’t receive medical aid.

But STR/DEX would be 1 bc 0 is not possible. Would have a -5 to hit - so 30% on an AC10 unarmored commoner.

I think this means you have a 0.3% chance of permadeath in an encounter with a baby if they only make 4 attacks and you don’t hit back and they don’t keep scratching your unconscious body.

If they attack you 10 times (1 minute of scratching w/ 6 sec turns), there is a 20% chance they land 4 scratches on you and you have a 40% chance to permadie once downed - so 8% chance of permadeath in one 10 turn encounter with a baby with the same stipulations as above.

Hilarious. Just needs the Shout spell.

So essentially they won’t go to sleep because they don’t know when their next long rest will be.

iirc in D&D if any of your stats reach 0 you die. Might be only body stats (str/dex/con), not sure.

I think I remember Wis doesn’t kill you at 0, but you go fully insane and lose control of your character. But that might just be older versions and not 5th ed rules. I feel like I recall something about going into a coma if Int hits zero, maybe that is new rules for mental stats…?

“My baby in Christ, you will be inducing the long rest.”

So… are baby nails a thing to be wary of? Funny

Charisma reaches -4 just before they turn two
