Reaction

Reaction is one type of Resource available to creatures during a combat round. It is consumed when using Reactions such as Attack of Opportunity or casting certain Spells such as Counterspell.

Unlike Actions and Bonus Actions, a character can use the Reaction resource during its turn and on other creature's turns. Characters normally receive one Reaction per combat round at the start of their turn. Some triggered actions, such as Reckless Attack or Divine Smite are referred to in-game as reactions.
