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.

SCENARIOS:

1. 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. 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. You have acquired a magical spellbook and decide to test it on yourself or someone else. The results are probably not as desired.
4. 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. 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. It is not actually magic but a science experiment gone horribly, horribly wrong.
7. You have no idea how or why this happened, but it's very mysterious.
8. It's all a really, really weird dream/hallucination/acidtrip.
9. 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.

[Jack was just doing his regular rounds of stalking keeping tabs on everyone when... uh...

wow have those always been that big?

teleportaling in]

... What the hell happened to your chest?

[Patchouli yelps and does her best to cover them with her arms. It doesn't help much.]

What are you doing! You can't just teleport in unannounced.

Steve Rogers | Captain America: TFA | bring it

Don't tell me what to do, you're my fucking suitemate! [apparently this means he can do WHATEVER HE WANTS he was here first etc.] Seriously, what the hell happened? I'm pretty damn sure that's not normal.

[they look so squishy, weird

...

maybe just

one little poke

summoning a tentacle...]

[weekwitch]

Don't talk to me about normal! I have no idea how this happened. One moment they were like this and the next they were huge!

[Yeah she's so distracted yelling at Jack she doesn't notice the tentacle. She's wide open for a poking.]

[Well, horsemen of the apocalypse are kind of like demons, I guess? But that doesn't really matter, since whatever the hell spell he was trying to cast for this exploded in his face, even if it did summon something.

He opened his mouth to speak and... uhh.

Okay, forget that. He waved his arms at this stranger instead, because he had no idea how to talk anymore.]

[barkstabbark]

Well it's not the experiment, 'cause I don't see that shit happening to anyone else! Are you sure you didn't fuck up a spell or something?

[yes patchy, keep being distracted. Just gonna keep on creeping along, slowly reaching up to one of those weird boobs.

almost there...]

Rolled a 2. Effect? A thick fog rolls in for an hour. Way to scare, supposed authorital being.

[leadmercy]

[...Well huh. That was sudden. Strife slows his horse to a trot, then stops entirely. Doesn't bother to look around. Instead, he listens. You caught out here too, Steve?]

[weekwitch]

No I did not botch a spell. I never botch a spell. I haven't botched a spell in over fifteen years. It just doesn't happen.

[She throws out her arms for dramatic affect in order to emphasize her point. If he wanted to touch them, now was his chance.]

[moumantai]

[Terriermon is now lemon-yellow and sprouting colourful flowers from his ears and head. Aerith is the first person he runs into, so he tugs at the bottom of her dress desperately.]

Aaaahhhh, get them off me, get them off me!

[Why did he have to a fight with that Wizardmon?!]

Drake Stone | Sorcerer's Apprentice

[flashy_magic]

[leadmercy]

[Demons have proved more helpful than angels. It's a sad state of affairs. Strife sits (sideways) on his horse and looks at the little...kid...?]

Don't let me deny your voice. Speak, should your words hold worth.

[barkstabbark]

[NOW OR NEVER

Gently prodding her leftmost breast with the end of a tentacle.]

... Hm. Well, they feel real...

[poke poke pooooooke]

[weekwitch]

[Patchouli just pauses for a moment before giving Jack the most indignant stare. Really, Jack? Really?]

You have got to be kidding me.

[stealinghats]

[Alright, fine, he will speak, because his words are always important.

With more gratuitous and vague gesturing:] Aaaauuueeeghhhhhh!

[So very important.]
