Sleep and Elves

Post by Storm Queen »

Elves get a +10 bonus to resist sleep spells and other similar effects. However, the sleep spell does not allow a saving throw. What do you suggest to resolve this and what ability score should sleep spells be linked to, to save against?

Charisma check.
See page 112 under "Types of Saving Throws"

Elves are magical beings. They are an exception to a few rules. Mainly cause they are elves.

Normally, no save is allowed. Elfs break this rule. They receive a save, at a +10 bonus, against whatever attribute the Castle Keeper wants to use, though Wisdom and Charisma (or Constitution) are most probable.

As Peter said: elfs are the exception to some rules.
