hi all, a giant wasp stings a pc, im confused on this wording. If the poison damage reduces the target to 0 hit points, the target is stable but poisoned for 1 hour, even after regaining hit points, and is paralyzed while poisoned in this way
so this means i dont roll death saves as im stable and even if given hp im still paralyzed and at disadvantage on saves etc if something else attacked me ?
I think the idea is for the wasp to carry the poisoned creature away to be used as food for its larvae, aka baby wasps. Imagine being eaten alive. Yumm.

Correct. The poison cannot kill a character, as the character auto-stabilizes with the additional effects. Other sources of damage can.
thank you.
