it always happens without failure that in RPs, your characters are bound to do something extremely stupid. be it almost killing someone by hitting them over the head with a wine bottle, getting strapped to an office chair and lighting off fireworks to make it go fast, getting drunk to the point where they give themselves a concussion from smashing beer cans on their heads...if it can happen, it will.

so what's your favorite funny moment in RP? i'm feeling a little down lately, and i could use a laugh. :>

Well, in a D&D campaign, I managed to semi-permanently create a field of electrified urine on the deck of a pirate ship. Wild magic and high rolls can make some crazy stuff, especially when you have a crazy DM running a crazy game. Just unfortunate I had to drop out.

I also had a child character who was getting some ninja training, and she had been instructed to use a particular breathing technique for focus basically as much as she could. She was super excited to inform her teacher that it even worked for pooping.

And for something less bathroom-related, I have a robo lady who is designed to be very smart and excellent at reading and manipulating people. She was talking with a lady she considered to be of average or below-average intelligence, trying to convince her to do something without actually asking her to. The "not smart" lady is actually pretty intuitive though, and not only figured out that the robo lady wanted her to do a thing (and what it was), but also why, and she was just really sweet with the "yeah, I'd totally be happy to help!" Robo lady was just like, uh, yes, thank you... uh... yeah. Just processing how totally easily she, a spy robot, had been read by a "dumb" person.

I had a character once fall asleep at a bonfire party and wake up the next morning in a kayak with a goat, a rope and no paddles. His way out? Tie a rope to the goat and throw it at sea, hoping it'll swim them both to shore while he nurses his hangover. The goat sank, unfortunately, and he was left stranded until he was in good enough shape to take a swim, ruining his jacket in the process.

One of my favorite stories of my halfling cleric happened at the funeral of the god she and the rest of the party had been serving. She wasn't a cleric of this god in particular. He was a lesser god within the pantheon of the goddess she served though so she went happily along for the ride. Well, he died (partially due to our elf's stupidity, which that character/player has yet to live down) and those gods who cared for him held a funeral in heaven and since we were his charges/sort of murderers, we were invited. Well, up onto the stage, strutting like a rooster at sun rise, comes Vecna, the god that tricked our elf into killing our god. Oh he was so stupid smug. SOOOOOOO SMUG!

Well, my little halfling was built to be the most amazing healer she could be. She was completely built around healing. Her strength was terrible. We were facing god like creatures and she was still using the mundane short sword she had started with at level three. She had literally done 0 damage the entire game. She hadn't even swung at anyone. But Vecna is SOOOOO SMUG! But it's a funeral! No one has any weapons on them!

What does she do? She rips a dirt clod up out of the ground and chucks it at him. I rolled a nat 20 to hit. o.o On top of that, several gods sitting around us noticed me chuck this thing and proceeded to enchant/enhance it mid flight. This thing was literally an epic level artifact by the time it smacked straight into Vecna's smug face. His feet went over his head and oh man did that wipe that smug smile off his face. It felt so good. SO GOOD!

Dndmama, that is amazing. Reminds me of the story about the luchador who tackled a dragon out of the sky.
