Hi friends! I recently came across an interesting topic in D&D that I wanted to share with you all: creative use of items. For example, a rope can become not only a tool, but also a trap or a weapon. In one of the games I played, a mage dissolved a grate with acid instead of attacking. Have you ever had any unexpected situations with items? I’d love to hear about them!

    Use and abuse prestidigitation. Annoying dog? here puppy, the best steak you ever tasted. need to ask the guards again? Change my clothes. plot exposition? minor cube of illusion. Between that and mending I have my GM debating firing my bard after only 3 sessions of curse of the crimson throne.

      GM dependent, of course,

      Prestidigitation RAR can’t change your clothes. That’s the level 1 spell disguise self. It could change the color, but it should still be fairly obvious that you’re the same person. Personally If I did allow it, I would require a very hard bluff check to convince them that you aren’t the same person. Not even a disguise check. If you used a disguise kit though, I would probably let it slide depending on how many people the guards have interacted with since.

      Are you enjoying cotct? Ive ran it twice and it’s one of my favorite campaigns of all time.

        True though the disguise kit would take more time. I am so far. part of my GMs annoyance is that a lot of the names of the NPCs are clear hints as to their purpose and if you speak German and some Latin it makes it VERY obvious what the next plot point will be so I have been banned from translating the names from now on.
