When combat begins, every participating combatant rolls <span class="bg3wiki-info-blob">{{DieIcon|d4|Physical}} D4 + [[Dexterity#Dexterity Modifier Chart|Dexterity Modifier]]</span> to determine their position in the initiative order. The participant with the highest roll goes first and the participant with the lowest roll goes last.
