Notes
- A creature who is knocked Prone does not skip their next turn, they will simply use their movement to get back up.
- However if a creature gets knocked Prone during their turn, their turn will automatically end and they will not get back up until the start of their next.
- Knocking an enemy Prone and reducing their movement speed to 0 will skip their next turn as they can't get back up.
- Some creatures are immune to the Prone condition, including those without a physical body (such as Shadows and Wraiths).
- The spell Tasha’s Hideous Laughter causes a target to suffer from Hideous Laughter, which has the effect of Prone, but isn’t technically considered as such.
