    "Passive Perception is a score that reflects a creature's general awareness of its surroundings. The DM uses this score when determining whether a creature notices something without consciously making a Wisdom ({@skill Perception|XPHB}) check.",
    "A creature's Passive Perception equals 10 plus the creature's Wisdom ({@skill Perception|XPHB}) check bonus. If the creature has {@variantrule Advantage|XPHB} on such checks, increase the score by 5. If the creature has {@variantrule Disadvantage|XPHB} on them, decrease the score by 5. For example, a level 1 character with a Wisdom of 15 and proficiency in Perception has a Passive Perception of 14 ({@dice 10 + 2 + 2}). If that character has {@variantrule Advantage|XPHB} on Wisdom ({@skill Perception|XPHB}) checks, the score becomes {@dice 10 + 2 + 2 + 5|19}."
