High art, this is not, but I know some referees will
introduce this particular bit of wonderworking into their campaigns with
tremendous glee. Think of it as a companion piece to my long-forgotten One Hundred Random
Ridiculous Magic Items Table.
Cure Humorous Wounds
(reversible)
Level: 1
Duration: Permanent
Range: Touch
Level: 1
Duration: Permanent
Range: Touch
This potent but specific spell cures a single character or
creature (including the caster) of all damage suffered from one or more wounds.
However, the injuries healed must be humorous in nature. Any injuries sustained
in a less than entertaining fashion are unaffected by this spell. Whether a wound is considered humorous is
left to the Labyrinth Lord’s discretion, but suggested comical wounds include
an arrow in the buttocks, a sharp blow to the genitals, injuries sustained from
custard pies, and other similar damage. If the majority of the players (not
characters) succumb to laughter as a result of the wound, it is also considered
humorous.
Cause humorous wounds
(reverse of cure humorous wounds)
inflicts a single injury on a creature if the caster touches his opponent and
the victim fails a saving throw vs. spells. The exact nature of the wound can
be determined by the Labyrinth Lord or by rolling on the table below:
1) Shot to the Danglies: Lose all actions for one turn
automatically. Each subsequent round, the target must make a save vs. paralysis
to recover. If the save is failed, the creature loses another round of action
as he/she/it groans in pain.
2) Hot Foot: Target’s boot/foot/hoof/etc. catches fire
causing them to hop about comically for 1d4 rounds or until they extinguish the
appendage. The small fire inflicts 1 point of damage each round.
3) Eye Poke: Woo-woo-woo! Target is poked in the eyes and
cannot see for 1d4 rounds. All attacks and saving throws are at a -2 penalty.
4) Mallet to the Head: A hammer of force descends upon the
target, smiting them upon the pate. If wearing a helmet, the basinet is crushed
and forced down over the victim’s eyes, blinding them until it can be removed
with a successful STR check. Target’s without helmets are stunned for 1d4
rounds and illusionary, tweeting birds circle the victim’s head.
5) Tongue Grab: A hand of force grasps the victim’s tongue
and yanks. A successful DEX check must be made to remain standing.
Spell-casters are unable to perform magic for 1d4 rounds afterwards.
6) Atomic Wedgie: An unseen presence yanks the victim’s
undergarments upward with great violence, reducing their movement rate to the
next lowest speed and inflicting a +2 penalty to AC. This effect lasts for 1d4
rounds or until the victim spends a full round readjusting their undergarments.
