Radiation Field (5e Hazard)
From D&D Wiki
Radiation Field[edit]
Radiation fields are small to large scale areas that are contaminated with radiation. Remaining in these radiation fields can cause you to contract radiation poisoning and worse. There are two types of radiation fields: weak and strong.
- Weak Radiation Fields
These are less common and less lethal, however, cover a 12 mile radius. It takes someone up to 10 minutes to begin showing signs of radiation poisoning.
- Strong Radiation Fields
These are more common and very lethal, but typically only take up a 3 mile radius. It can take 2 minutes or less for someone to contract radiation poisoning. Continual exposure to these radiation fields after contracting radiation poisoning can lead to exhaustion, fatigue, extreme illness, and death.
