(Taking from Out of the Abyss)
There are things in this world that are not comprehensible to the human mind. Upon seeing such things can cause trauma to some. Seeing something you otherwise should will cause to you make a Madness Saving Throw.
A creature's madness level starts at 0. When the creature fails a madness saving throw, its madness level increases by 1, and the creature immediately suffers the level's effect (as determined by rolling on the Short-Term Madness, Long-Term Madness, or Indefinite Madness table in the Dungeon Master's Guide, as appropriate). When the effect ends, the creature's madness level doesn't change. Any time the creature's madness level increases, it suffers the effect of the new level.
If a creature with level 3 madness fails a madness saving throw, its madness level becomes 1. In this way, characters can potentially accumulate multiple forms of madness.
Bouts of short- and long-term madness can be cured as described in the Dungeon Master's Guide. Given the demonic source of the madness, remove curse and dispel evil are also effective as cures. A greater restoration spell or more powerful magic is needed to cure indefinite madness and also resets a creature's madness level to 0.

66-75 The character experiences uncontrollable tremors or tics, which impose disadvantage on attack rolls, ability checks, and saving throws that involve Strength or Dexterity.
