My D&D group, more specifically a friend, my mom, and I, gaslighted a zombie into decapitating itself by accident. My mom’s character is Shozbot, a blue dragonborn druid. My friend is the DM. My character is Spider, a kobold rogue. This is more or less what happened.
Zombie, sitting in a throne and holding a longsword: “Who dares awaken me from my slumber?!”
Shozbot: “This is a dream. We’re not really here.”
DM, laughing: “Roll persuasion”
My mom: “Seventeen.” (This was impressive enough because she always rolls low)
Zombie: *after pondering this for a moment, cuts off own hand with the longsword, then looks at the wound, visibly confused* “I should be in immense pain right now.”
Spider: *realizing that zombies don’t feel pain because they’re already dead*
Zombie, staring at the stump of their hand, still baffled: “This isn’t a dream. It’s a nightmare.”
Spider: “But now that you’re aware that it’s a dream, you can control what happens. That’s how it works.”
Zombie: “Yes. That makes sense.”
After trying to alter the “dream,” and failing to do so, the zombie ended up intentionally using the longsword to cut off their own head. I missed some things, like the zombie mentioning that they’d be able to cut off their own hand with no pain in a dream, and Shozbot suggesting that the zombie should remove their own head instead. So, this happened less than an hour ago. And it worked. When the zombie asked why we were there, we didn’t really know what to say, so my mom, as Shozbot, said something stupid and it worked. This is part of why I love D&D so much. Because stupid things like this can happen.
D&D Fun
I chose Dewey from Bendy In Nightmare Run as my character to playas, and I had a 20 in the vault(STorage for later use) and so we were fighting raiders. I pulled the 20 outta the vault and drowned the raiders in ink. Basically, I summoned a lot of ink and drowned them. Their armor was the only thing of theirs that was unaffected.
