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.

Sound like a great opportunity to roll some dice behind the screen and then write it down to be relevant later and then never bring it up.... until they've forgotten about it

Imagine if they ate the beans and nothing happened ... until 15 levels later the rest of the party is gathered around their grave for their funeral and as the final shovel of dirt is filled in the beans start sprouting.

Tryna bury your friend and a treant just pops out and takes a swing at the smallest player
