Ways to fail your stealth check, #489

In tonight’s D&D session, an evil druid threw a squirrel at Augh. Augh picked the squirrel up, magically seasoned it with prestidigitation, and ate it. And promptly failed a stealth check by barfing up raw squirrel because it was a raw squirrel.

(no subject)

I don't remember if I've said it yet, but Augh is a wild mage variety of sorcerer, and therefore has occasional wild surges where random magical effects happen because they sometimes lose control over their inner magic.

I had one such wild surge near the very end of last night's session, but I was busy updating my character sheet for something (probably spells cast?), so the DM rolled the surge for me. The interaction went something like this:

DM: Sixty-seven, no, wait, that's a one. Sixty-one. No. Sixteen. I can't read.

Me: Ok, finding the table. Sixteen is "For the next minute, you regain 5 hit points at the start of each of your turns." Aw, I'm already at full health. Well, sixty-one is "For the next minute, you must shout when you speak." You want me to do that instead?

DM: ... Odds or evens?

Me: Evens.

DM: *rolls a d6* You get sixty-one.

Me: OK!

Harry Potter book titles in other languages

I just took a Sporcle quiz, "Can you match the different translations of the same Harry Potter book?" and well, Philosopher's Stone translates pretty normally along, until you get to French, where they apparently decided to change things up a bit. "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? No. Harry Potter and the Wizard School."
