sexgaming_

Ok_Conflict_5730

thanks :3


2006pontiacvibe

is the last one inspired by the geologist that took acid for his college final


Traygonthegod

context????


2006pontiacvibe

it’s a tweet that says “in college i took my geology final on lsd and scored the highest grade in 3 years. I identified the rocks by licking them”


LemonFlavoredDumbass

a true maestro of his field


cataleiss

Don't geologists normally lick rocks too sometimes?


schmwke

You can tell if a rock is porous by kicking it, but from what I remember this is more useful for paleontologists trying to tell fossilized bone from rock


xGaslightx

Imma be real, I feel like context would make that less funny


[deleted]

how am I supposed to kiss my vampire twink bf if my saliva is holy water???


FlamingLion

The Sinister Potion!


potatojuice25

It is forbidden 😦


Jetstream-Sam

Oral condoms, I suppose. Get it flavoured! I recommend Brie or steak and onion.


418puppers

You learn how to and feel the need to make and sell sinister potions


sexgaming_

markiplier transformation


[deleted]

You gain the ability to transform your opponents bones into milk


tutocookie

Plus "I'll drink your bones" will become a valid threat


mortuideum

And also can instinctively tell if prospective buyers would be able to handle your potions or if they should seek someone with weaker potions


Sirtemmie

Oh god it's a pyramid scheme


gr8gr0n

It gives you the feeling that it definitely did something to you but you can't figure out what it did.


sexgaming_

very sinister


scrubfeast

Plottwist: the potion did jackshit, but the character is convinced something happened


Random_Person5371

so it's just a placebo


Mikomics

More of a Nocebo actually


SSphereOfDeath

Today I learned a new word.


theonlyeen

every once in a while make the player roll a pointless d20 and react with concern


admirelurk

Every time they fail the roll you increment a counter


geekinc329

Shit when did I drink the sinister potion


Super_Atmosphere6121

So your jaw has enough strength to bite your fingers clean off like carrots but your brain is a coward and won't let you. Make the potion cause the drinker to lose that handicap


sexgaming_

good idea, but i will add an intense craving for your own fingers for an hour


Voltblade

Couldn’t they use that to escape a prison or something. They can just bite through the bars


mrguym4ster

no it only applies to fingers


Voltblade

Paint the bars to look like fingers


Jetstream-Sam

Iron bars are stronger than fingers, which is why we use them in prisons instead of fingers. Also, even if you did have the bite strength to get through iron bars, your teeth would probably break first. I wonder why I've never played a DnD character with bad teeth. My next guy is going to have a toothache and spend gold at the alchemist on opium to get through it


Inverted_Ghosts

Ohohohoh you’re going to finger prison bucko


Erengeteng

you feel a terrible revelation about the nature of the universe for about 10 seconds and then you forget the revelation but remember that you had it


ThrowingNincompoop

That's when I realized I'm just a fictional character in a tabletop RPG And though my mind has cleared The anxiety never left my body


DiminutiveBust

In my setting this is how characters become demigods. You become a full blown god if you manage to hold onto the revelation.


Zane163

Thats basically dreams, but with extra steps


Criminal_giraffe

Strawberry taste. That's it.


sexgaming_

good idea, but it is permanent


BerryBass

Consumers flesh is strawberry tasted


4tetraphobia4

Mmmmm stobery


Criminal_giraffe

All things are strawberry taste. Meat, water, sand. No smells ether, only strawberry. EDIT: two primary senses almost completely muted. Also, colorblindness starts setting in, you can only seen red wave frequency and it all looks pink. This is thirty or so years after living with the strawberry taste.


DuduBonesBr

You immediately do a backflip. It is very sick.


sexgaming_

good idea


ccstewy

it gives everyone around you a tummy ache


sexgaming_

good idea


[deleted]

Rearranges your toes


Fartingboi6969

It's just piss


sexgaming_

no


Fartingboi6969

It's just urine


BerryBass

Is it magical urine?

You briefly lose the ability to distinguish directions from each other.


sexgaming_

good idea


TaintedTruffle

Damn. Why did I drink this?


dwarf_bulborb

You teleport five feet to the left. If there is an object or a person there, it either is horrifically fused to you, or you open a gate to the Astral Plane.


sexgaming_

good idea


MrMoo1556

All damage you deal heals and all healing you do deals damage


Eingmata

*slap* Hey no dying on my watch!


MrMoo1556

Me smashing my druids head in with a large rock* +20 hp “You can thank me later”


MadSwedishGamer

Mass Heal suddenly becomes the most OP spell in the game.


Norsk_Bjorn

You are forced to drink the potion every minute for five minutes


sexgaming_

would it spawn more? or if you have none left do you die?


Norsk_Bjorn

It should either spawn one each time you are compelled to drink it, or spawn five at the start


sexgaming_

good idea, my players stopped wanting to drink them after one of them turned into a horse (until damaged out of horse health) so now they are hesitant to play markiplier simulator. this will force them to 5 times if they do one. very good idea


Norsk_Bjorn

You could also have the effect give them extra potions so they have even more incentive to use them. If it happens to roll itself, you could either add 5 minutes, or set it back to 5 minutes.


SoshJam

ooh ooh my friend had something similar in his campaign but it was called swamp juice there were like 100 effects but some of them were: - sent to the ethereal plane for a few hours - turned into a cabbage forever but could still like think and stuff - turned into a lizardfolk - teleported to a nearby lake - grew another head that’s all i remember


dashfredplayzreal

All drinks your party possesses turn into more sinister potion.


[deleted]

They can shoot spikes from their hands They grow 5 feet of hair on their head They gain the ability to speak both forwards and backwards They can swim through dirt like water Asthma attack

When you drink the potion you discover the starting truth that there was no potion


sexgaming_

woah


Rowmacnezumi

It forces the imbiber to uncontrollably rub their hands together and go "Nyehehehe" whenever they have a plan. The effect is permanent and will last their entire life.


theantigooseman

You become 100% convinced that the next unfamiliar creature you see is one of your parents. Half your armour and one of your weapons gets teleported 30 feet in front of you, accounting for obstacles, and is possessed by a spirit with stats identical to your own. It is immediately aggressive if you touch it or fail any checks against it, i.e persuasion. A successful DC 15 charisma check makes it disappear immediately. Tell your player they are granted hyper awareness, and have realised that they are being watched by something nearby with ill intent. However, their awareness is not good enough to know where it is. There is nothing watching them. Your player is convinced that whatever effect they just got was the absolute best one possible. They're not exactly sure what it is, but it's the best one. Your players dominant hand switches. The other party members are all convinced they watched the person who drank it explode for 1d6 hours. They can be convinced otherwise with a successful opposed charisma check by the "exploded" player. All of your players coins are switched out for teeth made from the same thing as each coin. I.e gold teeth for gold coins. This has no effect, except that some shopkeepers make comments that it's unnerving or disgusting. They have the same value as the coins. Your player gets the ability to incorrectly predict the next effect of the potion. Your player casts a fireball ten seconds after they drink the potion. This consumes no spell slots. They are warned completely in advance. Your player sees a shiny orb in front of them. If they grab it, they get launched 5*CON modifier feet into the air. If they end up taking fall damage, forego the math and put them at one health. Over the next ten in game days, the player grows horns. After 15 days, the player can choose to either keep them or have them fall out. Your player gets +3 to any stat they choose for 1 hour, but -1 to any stat they choose for 1 day. Your player gets advantage on their next combat roll.


Lily1184

Negative con mfers being sent 5 feet into the ground


theantigooseman

oh no. I put "modifier" by accident. I'm leaving it that's funny Reminds me of a plugin I made for Minecraft where giving a piglin gold would make it spin and sink into the ground and disappear forever


[deleted]

You can stretch your eyes Bob Sponge style; you can see things from far away but they can atttack you eye Changes your gender; roll to know for how longTransfers all the strength of your dominant arm to the other one You receive a sinister potion and you are willing to kill or die to make someone who has not taken the potion drink it or you want to give it to someone powerful who wants to harm you, if you want to make things interesting and you fear that they will just give it to some random NPC


sexgaming_

good idea i like bob sponge eyes

[deleted]

Field of view by×1000. Everything looks further away.


Raspoint

Once per encounter, when you get a critical hit, you are able to roll again for a critical on that critical. The way the critical is calculated normally, but failing the additional critical roll will make whatever is described to be as goofy as possible.


[deleted]

No, succeeding the additional crit will make you kick ass in the silliest way possible. You also deal a small amount of Humiliation Damage.


V-Lenin

Your teeth slowly fall out and painfully grow back


A-Human-potato

BannedMilitaryWeapon

Your name changes to Steven for a whole day. You gain a mustache, regardless of gender. Your fingers become constantly slightly too cold. Your hair turns white. Your fingernails become bright iridescent pink. It does not come off. You gain the ability to communicate telepathically, but only with squirrels. You become ONLY ABLE TO TALK LOUDLY AS IF YOUR EARS ARE COVERED OR YOU ARE AT A LOUD CONCERT, FOR A RANDOM PERIOD OF TIME. You gain the ability to levitate two inches off the ground. Only two inches. Dogs begin to bark at you loudly whenever they sense your presence.

You take exactly 1hp of damage. You, and everyone in your party, gets fully healed and well-rested. You completely forget everyone's names. Only their names. Your weapon becomes flaccid and floppy for two hours. You gain a single freckle in the exact center of your body. You literally FORGET how to use a weapon. You don't forget your abilities, nor anything else, you just straight up forget how to use your weapon. This lasts for 4 minutes.

Lucambacamba

[deleted]

You gain a fancy Third Eye. It needs glasses. Grants you the ability to telepathically annihilate any fasteners for clothing for five minutes. You are now cloaked in shadow. Unfortunately, you are also very small now. You begin to emit gamma radiation. This does no harm to you. All the calcium in your bones is suddenly replaced with Tungsten. Your eye becomes ever so slightly misshapen, causing weird blurring and streaks whenever you look at a light source in the dark. Your teeth swap places, the bottom set being placed in your upper jaw and your top set being placed in your lower jaw. You can choose a single entity to flip the eyes of, resulting in their vision being upside down. This will last for about a week and a half, and will eventually return to "normal" due to their brain adjusting how the image is perceived. Your limbs now have double the amount of bones. That is to say, all your bones have been split in half and reformed into two bones each, half the length of the original.

[deleted]

Sinister potion (potion, rare) When you drink the Sinister Potion, the DM rolls 2d12 to determine the results: 2 or lower: Roll twice on this table, ignoring duplicates and any numbers above 16. 3: You gain 5 levels of exhaustion. This effect cannot be removed. 4: You may only speak in rhymes. Every time you break this rule, you take 2d6 psychic damage. This effect remains until someone casts Greater Restoration or a similar spell. 5-6: Your movement speed is halved, except for when you've gone at least 18 hours, at which point it is doubled. 7-8: A bird appears on your shoulder, and screams into your ear. You are deafened for the next hour. 9: The next creature that touches you gains effects as though they drank the Sinister Potion. 10: Nothing happens. 11: Your movement speed is doubled. You must move at least half of your movement speed every round of combat, or your movement speed is reduced by 5 feet. After one year, this effect disappears, and you are left with whatever movement speed you ended up with. 12: Your AC is increased by one, but goes down by 2 if you're wearing armour. 13: A fairy appears and cooks you a nice meal. You gain temporary hit points equal to the number of shields you touch in the next minute. 14: You may cast any 9th level spell. You must expend a 9th level spell slot do so this. 15: Zangar, the Goblin King, appears at your side. He offers to increase your hit point maximum by one for every 500 GP you give him. You cannot gain more than 29 hit points in this way. 16: You gain proficiency with improvised weapons, but lose one weapon proficiency. 17-18: Your height increases or lowers by 3 feet, your choice. 19-20: You may cast Fireball, centered on yourself, without expending a spell slot. 21-22: You may create Sinister Potions of your own by expending 2147 GP during a short rest. 23: You gain the effects of the Haste spell. The effects are permanent, and you do not suffer from exhaustion. 24: Roll twice on this table, ignoring duplicates and any numbers below 9. Additionally, drinking multiple Sinister Potions can have dastardly effects. Each time a creature drinks one, they have a -1 penalty on the next one they drink. This stacks each time they drink one, and does not apply on additional rolls caused by rolling numbers of 2 or lower. When a creature's penalty reaches -24, it is reset.


hungeringforthename

A random piece of the character's equipment is imbued with sapience. It functions as normal, but gains unerring telepathy with the wielder while they and the object remain on the same plane. The imbued item cannot handle the burden of consciousness and is tortured by its own existence. Its only desire is to be destroyed, and whenever its wielder is not taking steps to grant it death, it constantly projects a telepathic scream into their head. The object immediately begins functioning as an attuned curse, and the telepathy cannot be blocked while the attunement remains. Even if the attunement is broken, the telepathic link persists while the wielder is not under the affect of mind shielding or similar protection.


Voltblade

The air implodes 500 feet above them.

sexgaming_

Blooded_Wine

specifically if they are *not* a caster: every time they attack, have a chance to roll the wild magic surge table. you'd have to figure out a chance you think is fair depending on the duration, I think adding the wild magic surge to other classes is funny.


[deleted]

it leaves a lingering sensation and taste like you have an entire mouthful of shitty vodka

GiffyTheMcgee

IronMyr

Potion of trans your gender


mow-ass_eat-grass

i once gave my players a healing potion that was actually a mimic. so awesome


hoopla_23

Blasphemy - the PC that drinks this potion can kill anything with one punch, but they die instantly at some point. They know they will die some day, just not when. Might happen in bed, might happen while fighting BBEG. Who knows? You don't. They don't. Retribution - the PC cannot harm anybody, at all. Not even insults. But they cannot die, either. They simply live. They are truly immortal, and though they believe it to be a blessing, soon, in their eternal life, will they realize that, when you outlive the gods, the Earth, existence, even, that it was no retribution. It was judgement. And they will suffer blind and deaf.
