To be fair, most ear piercings are not "cored", but merely punctured. Considering all phalanges begin as flippers, would this spell also render the target a better swimmer, as well? 🀣😜

DM: I have good news and bad news.

Player: give me the good news.

DM: We're naming a new PC race after you.

Personally, I'm fond of healing potions, when used in lieu of common sense after the fact, posting a risk of addiction (likewise, arcane healing spells) as a cautionary lesson to would-be murder-hobos dabbling in meta-dickery at the table. 🀘🏼

So, this is very on-brand for me, as well. 🀩🍿

would-be murder-hobos dabbling in meta-dickery at the table.

DM: Oh, so we're meta-gaming now? Is that why you keep executing my quest-givers and plot-leads? Hold my ale.

But seriously, as a DM I'm chill with some meta-ness if it fits the "rule of cool" and doesn't break the game or story into unusable pieces. Then again, my style is heavily improvised so they can't break much in the way of grand plans (there aren't any). Besides, I can always call down some deity and rewrite physics to my liking, so the risk is basically nil.

Sounds like you might really dig Ironsworn/Starforged. 🀘🏼

I'll look into that, thanks!

It also says that the spell "closes all wounds".

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

So, if an intentional body modification is a "wound", I guess that means the spell doesn't differentiate and mundane sex changes would also be reversed? πŸ₯²πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™‚️

I feel like puncturing a hole is pretty clearly a wound, but having a cockatrice petrifying someone and casting Stone Shape (which I assume is how sex changes and cosmetic surgery works) probably wouldn't be a wound.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Heh. Mundane sex changes don't often involve a cockatrice, AFAIK.
