Hey All, I'm looking to expand the Shadowfell Despair chart on page 52 of he DMG.  There are only 3 possible effects on there, so I'm looking to expand to around 10 different effects, maybe some "no so bad", with a greater chance of occuring, and maybe one or two even power overwhelming effects, with a lesser chance of occuring.  In any case, no effect should stop the adventures from continuing on.


At the very least, though, i'm just looking for a little more variety, so thought I'd toss the topic out and see what feedback I could get.

 

A few I thought about...

 

Irritable. The character has disadvantage on all charisma based checks and saving throw and gains the flaw: "I don't have time for idle conversation with those beneath me...and they're all beneath me."

 

Uninspired. The character has disadvantage on Dex checks for initiative and gains the flaw "I don't get what the point is, do my actions really matter." (a lesser version of the apathy effect from the DMG).

 

Oblivious. The character goes last in any initiave, has disadvantage (or grants advantage) on surprise checks and has disadvantage on perception checks.  Thier base score on passive perception becomes 5 (5 + attribute/proficiency) and they gain the flaw: "I cannot stay focused, my mind wanders to dark thoughts and places."
