3e SRD:Helpless

This material is published under the OGL

Helpless

Bound, held, sleeping, paralyzed, or unconscious characters are helpless. Enemies can make advantageous attacks against helpless characters, or even deliver a usually lethal coup de grace.

A melee attack against a helpless character is at a +4 bonus on the attack roll (equivalent to attacking a prone target). A ranged attack gets no special bonus. A helpless defender can't use any Dexterity bonus to AC. In fact, his Dexterity score is treated as if it were 0 and his Dexterity modifier to AC was -5 (and a rogue can sneak attack him).

gollark: Well, good luck with that, I am *very good* at working out convoluted ways to get around that.

gollark: You want to specifically block potatOS, but are okay with literally any other malicious code?

gollark: People could just stick non-potatOS-installer evil code in a "site".

gollark: Just use sandboxing.

gollark: ????
