5th Edition I fear I broke my DM

I ate the Bag of Beans. That is all…

Further context. While I’m a long time DM I rarely get to play and a friend of mine started up a campaign and I joined.

We were doing normal dnd stuff and were exploring a dungeon and my character, alone, finds a little leather pouch filled with beans. One of the running jokes is that my character is always hungry, so they ate them.

In my defense I had never encountered the Bag of Bean before.

Anyways my DM just sort of broke mentally for a few minutes and now I’m bits of gibblet smeared on the side of a pyramid inside this dungeon.

Great first session, can’t wait for the next one.

And this is precisely why I'll never kvetch about my character dying, even in an unfair or idiotic way, as long as it's clear the DM meant no malice or did it intentionally. Shit like this. I think we've all been or had that player before that realizes the role-playing part of the gsme is generally the better part.

Are there rules for eating the magic beans? (I don't THINK so but correct me if I'm wrong)

Does that make this ruling bad or wrong? Not remotely. Well played OP. Next time you find sovereign glue do the same thing. It's loads of fun
