Say you are playing a character, and they are downed (0 HP) and in that moment, they get turned into stone (petrified).



Does the character continue making death saving throws while petrified? Or do they resume making death saves only after they are turned back?

Yes you continue to make death saves while petrified



The condition petrified states the following:





  • A petrified creature is transformed, along with any nonmagical object is is wearing of carrying, into a solid inanimate substance (usually stone). Its weight increases by a factor of ten, and it ceases aging.

  • The creature is incapacitated (see the condition), can't move or speak, and is unaware of its surroundings.

  • Attacks rolls against the creature have advantage.

  • The creature automatically fails Strength and Dexterity savings throws.

  • The creature is immune to poison and disease, although a poison or disease already in its system is suspend, not neutralized.




You are not immune to damage and can be killed while petrified. Therefore you must continue to make saving throws against death.
