Context, our DM is running us through our first dungeon (5e), we’re a four man party, and only two of us are experienced with DnD of any kind. The first part of dungeon was mostly just cannon fodder monsters, so we would learn about the basic combat mechanics, I was playing a rogue, who loved to use a hand crossbow, and we come upon two zombies in a hallway, and quickly killed one.
DM: Alright, there’s only one zombie left what do you do?
Warlock OOC: I’m gonna blast him back with Eldritch blast
*rolls 19*
DM: The zombie is blown backwards, and is now lying down on his back
Rogue: I’m gonna shoot him in his balls
DM: I’m sorry.., what?
Rogue OOC: Yeah, I want the bolt to enter through his crotch, and leave through his head.
DM: Um, okay roll I guess?
Rogue: *nat 20*
DM: The arrow flies through the zombies groin and out his skull, trailing behind it the zombie’s nuts as it thuds into the wall, leaving your trophy to claim!
april fools jokes are supposed to be stupid things like “putting a different cereal in the wrong cereal box” not fake breaking up with people and tricking them into clicking on a screamer video causing a panic attack. please remember that april fools is supposed to be fun not anxiety inducing or traumatizing.
just putting this out there but if someone points out something you’re doing has racist/homophobic/transphobic vibes, you dont have to defend what you’re doing, you can literally just say ‘oh, i did not realise that, im sorry, i wont do that again’ like we all have internalised things we do that are offensive without us realising.. just say sorry and work on it. theres no need to defend
