- You have resistance to the damage dealt by traps.
- Traveling at a fast pace doesn’t impose the normal -5 penalty on your passive Wisdom (Perception) score.

I played the game a lot as a kid, back in first edition. Over the past few years since 5e was released, I’ve really started getting back into it. Currently, I run a campaign online for some friends and my brothers, and we also play a side-sesh just to mix things up.
