I’d make the PC take at least some damage from the gravel munch, even if successful.
Then later when they hit camp or eat a meal. Have them roll for constitution. Failure leads to spitting out a broken tooth and a future visit to the blacksmith to get it pulled.
I misread that as ‘roll for constipation’
I mean… He never said he spat out the gravel. Brings a whole new meaning to pebble dashing the toilet.
“What the hell are you doing in there? Laying cobblestone?”
Wouldn’t a healing spell be a better option?
For healing, absolutely. I just like the idea of having him require a visit to the local blacksmith where he has to explain how he broke his tooth. Purely for the sake of embarrassing him when they eventually ask why he thought it was a good idea.
Save vs death on their next bowel movement
Dude be like “They call it a rest room but I’m fighting for my fucking life in here!”
Naw, unless they abuse it you’re just punishing creativity. The Constitution roll at camp mentioned elsewhere is a good idea.
In all fairness, picking up the handful of smashed tile and shoveling out into one’s mouth are a compound action that is unlikely to be “free”, but the rule of cool wins in this instance, for sure. Had the Intimidation roll failed however, I would’ve given the opponent advantage on their next attack against the geek as the tile chunks turned their mouth into hot chum.
DM: He wears an iron headband, like a crown.
ME: Under or above his horns?
DM (thinking): Under. Wearing it over his horns would make it to small.
ME: So he cannot lose or remove that headband easily?
DM (suspicious): Nnno?!?!
ME: OK, Heat Metal
Now I’m starting to wonder… Are zippers a thing? Hell, I know piercings are. Thankfully you need to see the object you cast Heat Metal on. Otherwise I would pity the man who got a Prince Albert pierced.
