Could be fun to add this to a campaign. Each night, the players need to roll an athletics check. If they fail they dm rolls a d4 to determine the effect. Waking up groggy = disadvantage on next initiative; Sore neck = disadvantage on perception checks; Back pain = disadvantage on dexterity checks, Leg cramp = movement speed reduction till next short rest.

Could be but I’m of the opinion that not all roleplay needs to be mechanically connected. Maybe instead have them roll for the effect and if they role play it well throughout the session give inspiration as a reward.

Sounds good to me. While I was thinking about it I had another idea. If a player roles the same number three nights in a row, they wake up with sleep paralysis except the sleep paralysis demon is actually in the room.

That could be a whole mini adventure. Maybe after a dungeon raid a sleep paralysis demon latched on the party
