Throw is considered a harmful action so throwing anything including healing potions, will end your sanctuary.
Weapon attacks do not count as harmful unless they hit or damage something.
Damaging yourself will remove sanctuary. This includes the things listed below:
If someone takes damage in a surface you created, you will lose sanctuary even if you created it in a previous round.
If someone takes damage from a condition you applied, you will lose sanctuary even if you applied it in a previous round.
- This includes conditions applied from surfaces you created, like Poisoned or Burning.
- This does not include conditions if the damage is not attributed to the person with sanctuary, like Singing Sword: Shriek.
Damage dealt by summons you control does not break sanctuary.
- This includes things like Find Familiar, and Animate Dead.
Hypnotic Gaze does not break sanctuary.
Gust of Wind and Chromatic Orb does not break sanctuary.
- Chromatic Orb: Acid and Chromatic Orb: Cold both have surfaces that don't deal damage, and can be used by shooting the ground.
