MEME #1: RANDOM MAGICAL EFFECTS

[divinefist]

THE RANDOM MAGICAL EFFECTS MEME

"Your teeth turn brick red and then you turn into a bear for a week."HOW:

1. Start a thread with your character.
2. Other characters reply and generate a random effect. If you need a scenario, RNG it.
     2b. OPTIONAL: generate your own random effect, just because.
3. Tag other characters, generate more stuff, etc.
4. Shenanigans.
5. Yes you still have loveless ears and aren't in your home world have fun with that.

SCENARIOS:

1. ADVENTURE: You have just reached the end of some ancient, mystical ruins in search of the magical artifact hidden deep within. Weird shit happens as soon as you try to take it (collapsing ruins/boulders/Indiana Jones theme optional).
2. CURSE: You have angered a wizard/witch/powerful faerie/omnipotent entity/incredibly stereotypical gypsy/all of the above, somehow, because you're probably a horrible person. The next day you discover you've been cursed.
3. SPELLCRAFT: You have acquired a magical spellbook and decide to test it on yourself or someone else. The results are probably not as desired.
4. OUCH: You were bitten by a werewolf/cat/bear/dog/falcon/tiger/whatever the hell else is in there. There may or may not be some additional side effects.
5. RITUALS: You attempt to consort with demons/other entities of questionable morality and fail spectacularly-- either the ritual backfires, or they just don't like you.
6. THE BEES: It is not actually magic but a science experiment gone horribly, horribly wrong.
7. LOST: You are lost. Loster than the people on Lost. You are lost for words for how lost you are. So lost.
8. DRUG-INDUCED: I'm freakin' out man...
9. LET'S DO THIS: Roll two more numbers. Both of those things just happened at the same time, somehow. If you roll a 9 again, roll two more numbers and keep stacking them (ex. you roll a 2 and 9, then you roll again to get 5 and 6, which means you combine 2, 5, and 6).
10. Writer's choice.

If we get lost again, we will start a campfire, use it as a distress signal, and wait to be rescued. [ pauses ] Or we could try to burn a clear path from here to the outside, but I feel that method could possibly end in death, and would therefore be unwise.

[tripoverair]

Let's not do that! That could burn down the whole forest. Let's go this way.

[She takes the right-hand path. After all, they were supposed to turn right at the tree.]

You wouldn't really do that, or course.

[pretexts]

Of course I wouldn't. I appreciate life. [ or his facsimile of life anyway ] I am not about to turn to pyromania in an environment full of extremely flammable trees.

[ follows her down the path, peering around him to try and find something he recognizes ]

[tripoverair]

Good! I'm glad.

[Even if he did seem grumpy most of the time.]

You know, if we weren't lost this would be a really nice place.

[pretexts]

[ glances around ]

...It is rather lovely, yes. Though I imagine it probably only looks so nice in order to lure unsuspecting travelers into its depths.

[tripoverair]

Really?! Have you been in a forest like that before?

[She's been in treacherous woods, but not one of them had actually changed their layout.]
