Ready

You can use your action to Ready a reaction. You state an action you will take when specific criteria are met. If the stated criteria are met before the start of your next turn, you can use your reaction to take the action you previously stated.
Example: "I Ready my spear to Attack the first monster that comes within my reach" or "I'll Dash into the wagon as soon as it passes under this bridge."
You can even ready a Cast action to cast a spell, but you must specify which spell you're going to cast. You can't Ready a spell that takes more than 1 action to Cast.
You can always choose to not take the reaction you've Readied, even if the criteria are met.

Readied Bonus Action. When you use your action to Ready, you can choose to ready what is normally a bonus action, but to do so you can't take a bonus action on the turn you Ready.
