Two of my friends have super bizarre luck. One of them managed to get 4 nat 20's in a row on consecutive attacks across his turns. The odds of this happening is 6.25e-4%, or 0.000625%. He was playing a moon druid, and was in spider form, so it resulted in us basically capturing an entire squadron of goblin ambushers, since spider venom KO's and doesn't kill. Meanwhile another friend of mine has horrid luck, where the average of all his dice rolls per session is usually around 5. On 3 separate occasions, when he's used inspiration or had advantage, he's managed to get double nat 1's. He'll shove a target prone just fine, and then go in for the attack and still manage to flub it. He'll try to kick in a door, using expertise in athletics, and just smash his face into it.

[@pouncelygrin6699]

hahaha that's amazing 🤣

[@kajikathekitsune6447]

I did the opposite in 2 campaigns, one i went to kick down the door, rolled a nat 20 and SHATTERED MY SHINS as the door was protected by magic so any force dealt to it was dealt to the attacker, and seeing as i was a wizard. . . I immediately went down Next, we had just entered the main town of the campaign, we walk to the tavern, and I, in my all knowing mind, thought it would be a saloon door and decided to kick it open to be all cool, i roll a nat 20 and break the door... The owner wasnt happy with me

[@KingNedya]

I had a friend with terrible rolls too. To give you an idea of how bad they were, I don't think he ever hit a _single_ attack. The campaign only lasted like 5 sessions maximum, so it's not _that_ weird, but still...not a single hit. Meanwhile I would roll really highly and killed a magical flying alligator with a single punch of my bare fist.

[@MistahBryan]

I had created an Elf Archer(both Prestige classes for 3.0 DnD that focused on the Bow). I could hit ANYTHING I could see. After a month of playing I was attacked in melee and player panicked as I didn't have ANY melee weapon. I ran for an assist from a Party Member. After the combat, was accused of being Ill-Prepared. I pointed out, "Melee weapons seem to be cursed in my hands." They scoffed and gave me a Masterwork Longsword, I thanked them. Next combat, I needed to use the sword, I swung. My Initiative was 18, an enemy was attacking our Fighter, it's Initiative was 17.Nobody else had an 18 or 17. Nat 1 "Roll again to see how badly." the DM said Nat 1. "Ugh, let's see what happens." DM grabs the "Chaos Dice" which are the Percentile Die. 100 "Your sword flies out of your hands, bounces off the back of the Fighter's shield, forcing him to drop his guard." The enemy the Fighter was dealing with gets a +2 to his attack because the shield wasn't being used. 16+2, Fighters AC was 17. I was never permitted to use a melee weapon in that campaign again.

My son was the DM for a small group of his friends, all fairly new at the game. The party is attacked by goblins. One of his friends decides to attack with a chorizo (he somehow had chorizos in his kit). Well, one not 20 later and a goblin chokes to death on a chorizo that was shoved down his throat. I’m in the other room listening to this (their entire campaign was going this way) and just dying.

[@CaliPepper]

Reminds me of something similar from my first one-shot. At that point I wasn't really taking the game seriously. I just wanted to goof off, so I basically made my character this weird alien abomination that would intentionally do the dumbest things (don't worry, besides the DM it was everyone else's first game too). Well by the end of the one-shot, I had acquired a bunch of carrots in my inventory, and we were just about to meet a backstory NPC. Literally as soon as we started talking to her, my character decided he was bored. So he walked up to her, put a hand on her shoulder, and shoved a carrot up her nose. The DM asked me to roll for it, and I got a natural 20. Seconds later she's on the floor, dead, with brain juice and bits of carrot spilling out of her nose. I'd never do something like this again, but it's still one of my favorite stories because of how ridiculous it is.

The campaing had already started and i was joining late. My character found the group being captured by the enemie (at the time, they later became alies). Okay, i will have to help save the group, i thought. the DM then describes to the other players that they saw my character at the distance seeing the whole thing. The group had and npc with them that was a child and immediately after hearing the dm's description one of the player went: I throw the kid at him, and proceeded to roll a nat20. I went into shock: "WHAT THE FUCK?" DM just goes: "roll a dex save to catch the kid" Lucky me rolled a 17, but that moment got stuck in my mind till this day, it has been 5 years now The kid went on to become that kid in anime who travels with the group and is somehow untraumatized by the events happening arround her

Session 1: Our rogue refuses to lockpick doors because it's beneath him. So our tortle wizard has another solution. Locked door? Wizard shells up, gets picked up by my goliath paladin, and gets yeeted through the door like a wrecking ball that can cast Sword Burst. The second door we did this for was at the top of a greased walkway that was too steep and too slippery for us to walk through. So: Yeet the wizard up there with some rope and have him stand at the top and be the anchor for the others using the rope to climb up, since he is the heaviest by a good margin.

Cue my sorcerer grabbing the cleric and effectively using him as a phone line to call up his god(Heimdall, if anyone's curious) and yell at him until he gave us a second divine intervention roll. All thanks to a single nat 20. We loved the idea of my sorcerer screaming at gods so much we gave him a custom feat: Yell At God. Where he can give a cleric a second chance at divine intervention if he beats a DC 20 check. Yes this is always flavoured as him yelling at gods through their clerics, leaving the gods so baffled they just go along with my sorcerers demand. I love that story of our group so much.

I love these types of stories. I remember one time back in high school, we had a fiction club that was basically a d&d group and our english teacher was the DM. Anywho, in our campaign, we had a paladin, sorceress, barbarian and I was playing my usual human rogue. We were tasked by an archmage to take back his tower which was overrun by demons. We fought all the way up to the top of the building and (for context) our barbarian player had to go to another club that day, so the dm was temporarily controlling their pc for that day. We were met head on by a powerful archdemon that was grueling for our group. A couple fireballs here and there and our sorceress was downed, the paladin was knocked back so hard, he flew out of the room, and my rogue was barely able to pull the sorceress out to safety while nimbly dodging these giant balls of doom (my rolls were just lucky that day I guess.) It was then down to just my guy and the barbarian dwarf, who was being controlled by the dm until the player suddenly came in, said that he had time for a couple rolls before he had to go to his next after school activity. DM: Okay, so half of your party is down and you're both looking up at a fearsome, powerful demon. What do you want to do? Barb: I'll grapple it. DM: O...okay. Proceeds to, on his FIRST AND ONLY ROLL THAT DAY to roll a nat 20, grips this archdemon that was giving us all hell, and proceeded to SPARTA KICK THIS DUDE STRAIGHT OFF OF THE BUILDING and to its death.

I love how dark paladin style characters always name their mount something cute. Current campaign has a tiefling conquest paladin (Who when I was shown the mini in Heroforge, she just looked adorable) whose mount is a massive infernal horse, coal black with red eyes and curling horns, hes bored all the time unless there is violence to enjoy and once asked if they were to help a group getting robbed on the road or walking around. His name is Muffin.

[@JaelinBezel]

My paladin is a Goliath so i thought a horse would be too small. Instead, the dm and I worked out a stat block for a Giant White Viper for Gila to ride into battle on instead, based off a dire snake boss stat block from 3.5e that i found but with more toned down stats. Because she’s actually a Valkyrie that Gila summons in the form of a giant snake (for personal reasons) her name is Svava, an alternate form of one of the Valkyries’ names.

Craziest Nat 20's my group ever had: Our DM rolled 5 Nat 20s at the same time to see if my familiar raven would FINALLY get drunk and my raven proved that he is a god of alcohol that would make even Dionysus jealous of how well he can hold his liquor! We were all stunned and questioning what the heck is up with my raven and what made his so immune to getting drunk. It just started out as a funny running gag the DM started that my raven was a heavy drinker (he also rolled a Nat 20 the first time my raven decided he wanted a drink), but now it's more like a challenge to actually get my dumb bird drunk. I think my raven only failed a roll once in terms of drinking, but we've stopped at so many taverns by now that it's honestly ridiculous that my raven only ever got drunk once. Not even our dragonborn paladin could outdrink this tiny bird that likes to ride on my shoulder and talk smack with the party! I don't know how he does it, but I'm not even going to question it anymore because we are so past the point of logic by now with this bird! Funny side note: We find it absolutely hilarious that my raven familiar is the heaviest drinker in the party, but I, the actual player, don't drink at all. We've even made jokes about me being an Irish and Scottish lassie who does not drink yet my raven can drink 6 whole barrels of strong liquor that rendered even the biggest guys in our party to a hot mess.

First campaign I ever played in, our party decides to make a business of taking odd jobs. The bard and I decide to make flyers as advertising. The DM tells us to roll arts and crafts (partially as a joke) and we both roll nat 20s. We made the best flyers the realm had ever seen.

[@BladeGenesisOFFICIAL]

One of my favourite D20s was when in a campaign I'm currently in we were supposed to fight a dragon. Then my friend attempted to tame it, got a Nat 20 and got us a dragon. The Dm ended up having to rewrite a lot of the campaign because we essentially unlocked fast travel.

So my favorite story just happened in a campaign where me and my sister are both players in this group, ( bit of background, my sisters character just died the previous session and is introducing their new character who is this rabbit person bard.) she was talking about how she had nothing to do on this deserted island but play the drums for the past two years, so I was like “so you’re good then?” And she just took that as her cue to start playing, first roll for her character was a nat 20! So me and the entire group was moved to tears by this amazing performance and immediately Decided she HAD to join us to play music on the road. Later we arrived at a tavern and I was introducing her to the npcs at the bar, she decided to play a tune, second nat fucking 20! Hype was had considering those where her only two rolls lol.

So, my fave nat1 will always be my introduction to the group I play with nowadays. I joined the campaign a few sessions in, invited by a friend (who has since left the group). We were playing Pathfinder, and what had happened when I joined is that the Tiefling of the party had been captured by an angry mob and was going to be publicly executed just for being a Tiefling. I decided to play a rogue, whose signature weapon was a wrist-mounted dart launcher with which he fired poisoned knock-out darts (he was a bit more of a pacifist-like character who hated the idea of killing anyone). So, I snuck into the crowd, and as the Tiefling was being lead onto the stage to the executioner’s block, my plan was to dart the executioner, rush in and grab the gal, and scamper off into the crowd. Things… didn’t go to plan. I rolled to hit the executioner… Natural 1. DM rolled the fumble, and I hit a nearby target. Who was the only nearby target? The Tiefling, who promptly collapsed onto the chopping block like they WANTED to die… Thankfully, once the laughter of the table died down, the DM said that in the confusion, I could still attempt my rescue plan, which otherwise went off without a hitch, the other PCs covering my escape by fighting off the guards without my guy even realising it. So yea, not the greatest way to introduce a new character to the party, but a damn memorable one lol

[@Buphido]

We decided to dial back the crazyness of nat 20 and 1. Because, while nat 20s at the right time are awesome, rolling a nat 1 and killing your comrade or shattering your magic axe is more depressing than 5 nat 20s can alleviate. Though our DM decided to instead reward creativity: if things are going bad but we can think of something creative that would make sense both in world and for our character to do, he will usually make sure that it happens, which can lead to some badass, climactic moments.

[@dicegremlin7755]

Ahhh, this reminds me of my favorite one shot and my cursed green d20. It was just me and my best friend, with me DMing, and she was playing a wood elf lass named Thora. Feisty as all hell, never backs down from a challenge type of gal, and both of us knew it. Thora was making her way out of a delta set in a lil homebrew of mine, which was chock-full of rather trigger-happy (for lack of better term) water spirits that curse pretty much anything and anyone that touched their water without permission. And there was *alot* of water she had to get by. I... should also mention the spirits most commonly took the form of 20-50 foot snakes. So, I had my friend roll to avoid the water, and to our surprise, she got a nat 20. Thora hops gracefully across cypress knees, completely unharmed. We roll again, and another nat 20. At this point, Thora is pirouetting over the cypress knees, we're laughing and getting invested, so we roll again. ANOTHER nat 20. We look at each other in shock as i continue to describe the scene. Friend rolls again, and who would've guessed, another darn nat 20. Now we both knew Thora doesn’t know how to quit while she's ahead, and were getting a bit nervous because there's no way this luck will last forever. My friend rolls.... and Thora slips and falls into the water and angers a 50ft water spirit with her nat 1. And this is why that d20 is forever in dice jail lmao

My favorite Nat 20 I've ever had was actually playing as one of my first D&D characters. The party was going through a dungeon and me and one of the other party members failed an acrobatics check, falling into a pit. After finally finding some light, we found out that what we landed in was a blood pool, and we were both covered in it cause we had a CG vs CE scuffle with each other. My character comes out of a hole further down the pit's tunnel to find a bunch of lizardmen and their monarchs. At this point, I roll an intimidation check, Nat 20 and I let out a bloodcurdling roar that causes all of them to yield to me immediately as my new minions.

I think my favorite series of nat 20's I've ever witnessed was when the party (I was the DM) was fighting an ancient black dragon. The artificer shoots the giant stone throne with his portable ballista with a rope tied to it. The rogue, who had climbed to the top of the throne, jumps down and uses the rope to fly into the air, gets a nat 20 acrobatics and swan dives with a dagger straight into the dragon's eye getting _another_ nat 20. Then the warlock crits with eldritch blast for insult to injury.

[@SuperiorPosterior]

3:33 My favorite Nat 20 started my Pathfinder group's in joke of "I read it in a book!" There was me, a Rogue, our Paladin, a Winter Witch (basically, fireball is reflavoured as Snowball with ice instead of burn damage) and the Fighter. We were looking for a Hidden Temple to... one of the gods. I forget. But it was lost. _We_ were lost. Way lost. So we got to talking, in-character and out, about the surrounding terrain, and how everyone was annoyed no one had thought to put points into Knowledge: Geography. "Hey," says my Rogue, interrupting the Witch and Paladin's argument. "We're in the County of Chaos, just a few leagues from the Sandpits of Sorrow, right? I read a book of funny stories to my sister about this place, once! I wonder if those dotty rhymes had any clues. If I remember correctly, then..." *Nat 20* The GM then had to come up with some rhymes, limericks, and jokes (with my and the others' input, of course!) that would end up giving us some form of directions to our destination. He started out a bit annoyed, but then we were all laughing over dumb jokes, and we ended up not having *any* random encounters, because "you remembered the book's japes and glib remarks so thoroughly, that you've begun recognizing the hidden warnings in the world around you." The previous session was when we entered the area, and our first encounter had been a Kraken. We were level 3. Being able to just *not* deal with random encounters was well worth not levelling up until the next session, and it only took three sessions for someone else to pull the "read it in a book once" for a Knowledge check to get around our group's lack of political intrigue. Fun times! As for my favorite Nat 1 story... Same Pathfinder campaign as the Nat 20 story, our very first session where we're actually doing a thing. And that thing was... travelling to a Temple. The Sun Queen's Temple. Which really shouldn't have been very difficult whatsoever, but a few of our encounters with bandits and the like meant we had to keep reorienting ourselves, and as the Rogue (not to mention I had wings and could fly), it was my job to get up to a vantage point and get our bearings. I did so three times. I rolled Nat 1s three times. Our GM decided, on the third, that I saw the Temple-and that sunlight glinting off its golden bell tower blinds me, and leaves me unable to swear. I couldn't curse, I couldn't even *not-curse.* No "Aw shucks!" or "This whomps!" for me, no sir! And I stuck with it all the way until the end of the campaign (nearly two years later IRL), when we got to meet the Sun Queen in person, and the DM granted my character the honor of being the newly Ascended Goddess of Knowledge's High Priest. He had a Rogue with levels in Shadowdancer become a Priest. All because I stuck with a "curse" he'd completely forgotten he'd applied to me because of a few hilariously unlucky Perception checks. I still laugh about the absurdity!

Also, I loved your house rule for "confirming" nat 20s: it's kinda like the confirmation rolls for crits in Pathfinder, but a bit more lenient (since in your system you still deal crit damage even if you get a 1 in the second roll) and with an interesting "surprise element" (the insta-kill on the 3rd nat 20).

My friend had me sit in as a guest to play the BBEG at the end of his campaign and one of his players rolled a nat 20 to make me nauseous. Because I was the BBEG and had ludicrous resistance, the DM decides that I can roll to resist with a whole scale of how bad the nausea could possibly be. I rolled a 1. The BBEG started vomiting mid-monologue and the team just ganked him before he could get up to summon his allies.

[@ASuspiciousCrab]

Sounds accurate

[@JorisVDC]

That sounds like the most anti-climactic thing to happen ever. Here is the BBEG: the thing you have been fighting against, running away from and now it is just emptying it's stomach because some nauseous-causing spell? Bosses have epic resistances, because they need to feel hard to beat. You still need to beat the resistance of the defender to be able to critically hit them. So if the resistance is 31 and you rolled 20 and had a total bonus of +10, it still doesn't do shit. But hey, I must be too old-school for these high-endorfine run games. I'll see myself to the door, I get it: you don't want reality to intervene in your fantasy-game.

[@ShadowSerp-Deo]

So, the one story I tend to tell, my friend was playing a Drau Rogue and had this over powered wristlet crossbow. All he had to do to hit was roll a 3 on the dice most of the time. Well, our party is storming a fortress of mages who basically kill all non-humans and non-mages, so naturally Siege Weapons are involved. The rogue sees a catapult launch a bolder at him, so he readies and fires an explosive bolt, trying to be cool and shoot it out of the air. Well, the catapult's crew all rolled nat 20s to prep, aim, and fire. My friend... a nat 1. So the bolt kinda just slides out and explodes at his feet. He then looks up as he is hit by a bolder that dealt not double, not triple, but 8x his hp in damage. All he would've needed to do is a dex save, but he wanted to be cool. So, DM flavored it as he got hit so hard, he went straight to hell and landed in the satan's bathtub while he was taking a bath.
