something embarrassing.
61. Poke holes in the bottom of their waterskin.
62. Leaves an obviously magical stone in the middle of your camp. What it does is
hidden from you. Any attempts to discover the magic make absolutely no sense.
 But it is definitely doing something. (Something like attracting snails to a place one
mile away from it, something no reasonable player would ever have reason to
figure out.)

down is difficult.
64. They all wake up with the same face for one hour.

immediately.
69. Someone turned all our armor bright pink!
70. The player’s helmet smells heavily of cheese for the rest of the day.
71. Someone cast Enlarge/Reduce on the player’s clothing. Needless to say, it no longer
fits.

with a tendency to get everywhere.
73. All stealth gear (lockpicks, hidden daggers, etc) glows in the dark.
74. The entire camp is now covered in faerie dragons who won’t leave the players
alone. They make random comments all the time and are generally unhelpful and
irritating. They go away after a few hours.
75. The next time a weapon is drawn, POOF, it’s now a rubber chicken and pixie dust is
everywhere. Squeezing it makes a dumb noise. It turns back after a few rounds.
76. A Satyr follows a person playing theme music.
77. Pixies cast a glamour spell on the ugliest person in the party. Suddenly that PC is a
gorgeous female elf.
78. A dryad wishes someone to stay and talk with them. She casts a root spell, if the PC
stops for more than a min the PC feet start to root in place.

84. Bright lights appear as soon as someone says the word Stealth and won’t disappear
until someone not in the party sees you.
85. A rhinoceros is stampeding down the thin path. It’s a pretty obvious illusion
without a shadow or footprints that passes through anyone harmlessly if they don’t
move. Anyone that the illusion passes through now smells like a sweaty stinky
rhinoceros.
86. The party finds a fruit tree growing a variety of fruits and vegetables, even kinds
that don’t grow on trees. They are perfectly fine to eat, but none of them taste how
they look. (The banana tastes like potato, the broccoli tastes like orange, etc. )
87. Everyone’s ears have been changed into donkey ears.
88. One of the party finds themselves uncomfortable and unable to sleep thus losing
the benefits of a long rest and instead becoming exhausted. A single pea placed
under their bedroll is the cause. If planted, the pea will sprout into a magical
beanstalk.
89. One of the party (any gender) starts to feel increasingly bloated and nauseous over
the course of three days. They are far more hungry and crave odd combinations of
food. They wake up on the fourth day to find a large egg in bed with them as
though they have laid it. The egg eventually hatches into a really ridiculous and
ugly leggy bird that runs off laughing (or another creature of the GM’s discretion.)
90. You happen across a traveling merchant offering excellent deals. All his goods and
even his change are fake. (transformed sticks, leaves, dirt, old boots, etc.)
91. The party is dumped into a hedge maze that cheats by re-arranging itself.
92. Many small fairies are helping a gigantic elderly snail slowly cross the road. It will
take an hour for it to cross. The fairies warn you not to leave the path in the mean
time. Will-o’-wisps lurk on the borders as a warning. Anyone who does leave the
path hoping to simply walk around the snail finds themselves instantly transported
into a confusing and thorny hedge-maze that takes more than an hour to escape
from.
93. Your coins have been enchanted with magic mouths to tell bad puns. They insult
your poverty, your social status, merchants, and any goods you are trying to buy.
94. Everyone’s boots and shoes are now only left-footed. This fixes after 24 hours.
95. Your team is followed around by a troop of squirrels. Whenever you say a certain,
fairly common word, they bombard you with walnuts.
96. Replace all of your arrow heads with red berries. (If first pulled out in battle the PC
might not notice before firing one or two.)

98. The entire party gets the hiccups.
99. The afflicted player feels uncomfortably warm, no matter the environment.
100. The afflicted player has an itch in an unreachable part of their back. Whoever
itches it is afflicted next.
101. The PCs’ clothes become bound to their bodies and turn into dancing outfits.

or interact with something. Lasts one day.

bushes also apply that same effect when consumed.

affected by gravity.

can only use very formal words in a conversation.
109. The PCs are transformed into furniture and dishes needed for a tea party.

The pranker and her friends appear out of nowhere to sit down, drink a cup of tea
and gossip.
110. The PCs and all their equipment appear black and white to everyone,
including themselves.
111. A random female PC gets an unremovable flower crown, but every flower in
that crown is 3 times bigger than that PC’s head.
112. The PCs are transformed into tiny pink dragons with glitter breath. The effect
lasts for 2d4 hours.
113. The pranker hosts a game show where the PCs are the players, and not
getting your hands transformed into tree branches for 7 days is the main prize.
114. Cast prestidigitation to make a black cloud float over someone’s head
wherever they go. Including indoors.
