288: An unremarkable brown satchel appears filled with light, soft, brightly colored balls. These balls are so light that they can only be thrown 15 feet before they start taking range penalties, and cannot deal any damage of any kind no matter how hard you throw them.

However should you yell the name of select spells in common loudly while throwing the ball, the spell effect will occur (at caster level 10) wherever the ball may hit. When used in this manner, the ball is destroyed. Use Spellcraft to identify the spell each ball contains.

Roll 1d4 per color to determine the number of balls in the satchel.
Red: Fireball
Yellow: Lightning Blot
Green: Acid Arrow

289. A pod grows up. Inside the bean pod is a Potion of Youth. One dose of the potion takes off 10 years of your appearance and make you feel ten years younger (in other words, your actual age is 10 years less). A new dose appears in the pod every 5 days. The limit the potion can take off or reverse is 18 years old.

289a. A certain subset of the Potion of Youth beans have mutated so that they no longer have the lower limit. When overdosing on the potions from these (which is easy to do because the potions act slowly), you can un-age to negative ages, requiring a truly bizarre quest to get you back.

There you go again. Success is never guaranteed.

A goblin warrior proclaiming himself the "King of Thieves". He carries a dagger and can whip the party's ass, unless the GM rolls a lot of 1s.

Besides, the party might not have a donkey.

{. . .}

When confronted by the party, the villain blurts out "BUT . . . BUT . . . BUT . . . I was over there!" (Points to a nearby evil-looking castle, then runs over to look in, but as the Villain is about to look in the door . . .) "No -- I better not look. I just might be in there."

339. Roll three times on this table and draw a triangle between those three points. The bean equals the area of the triangle.

In area?

How do any of these bean results equal a point in space?
Is this some gordian knot that you posted because you are about to junk your computer and go full Amish?

SF fog dates back into the 1700s, several ships wrecked there as it was being settled. Friends dove one just north of the bay beck in 1970s. Long ago 'souvenir looted. Only the ballast stones were left.

Federal time if you go there now.

340: A fist sized crystal appears. Whenever a living creature touches this crystal, it will play music rather loudly. The song it plays is always different from creature to creature, but is always somehow appropriate.

example: if picked up by a dwarven miner, something like this may be heard.

A musical stone of destiny. Nice!

343: Once the bean is planted, a green suit of power armour grows from it.


Keep them coming! Keep this Kudzu vine growing!

344: You become aware that the act of planting the bean somehow halved the remaining lifespan of the universe.

345: Your character is specially cursed. Anyone who begs or even asks you for money gets hit in the head by a falling gold brick. It does 6D6 damage, reflex save for 3D6. If the person avoids the bludgeoning damage, anyone with better initiative can grab it. Each person can be so bludgeoned only once a day. I think a 500GPV brick should do the job.:)

346: Instead of a beanstalk, it's a gigantic cornstalk that grows, so gigantic that the Green Giant will step out of it when it ripens

347: The planter must make a DC 25 Will save or be cursed. The planter must answer any question with a question until the curse is lifted.

^This could have an interesting effect if two planters of #347 meet up after being thus cursed . . . .

350a. A terrifying eldritch warrior in black armor and with a mask completely covering his face comes out of the ground, attacks you, forces you onto a bridge to nowhere over an abyss, hacks off your weapon-wielding hand, and insists that he is your father . . . .

Wait, this is still going on?

351: You may cast Speak With Animals 3/day

352: You MUST cast Speak With Animals 3/day. Every day you do not cast speak with animals and proceed to speak to at least one animal with said spell, you must make a DC 18 fortitude save or gain one permanent negative level. Going one week without losing a level reduces the amount of Speak With Animals you must cast per day by one (week one is 2/day, week two is 1/day). On the third week, you no longer need to cast Speak With Animals.

353: You gain another nose next to your nose. Noseless characters gain a nose. +2 on scent based perception.

354: Your unarmed strikes now resolve as touch attacks, but deal two die sizes less damage. Your fists are covered in green vines that lash out at enemies.

Come to think of it, this doesn't have to be restricted to killjoys who refuse to create a backstory -- you just have to work harder to drive the others crazy.

Note that it is technically possible for bean #350a to come up more than once . . . including in #355.

356: Once planted, the bean grows into a tree that bears a single fist shaped fruit that tastes horrible. This fruit permanently grants whomever consumes the entire fruit the feat Improved Unarmed Strike. Should the consumer already have that feat, they instead get a Style feat randomly determined by the GM.

357: A geyser of coffee erupts from the ground and lasts 2d12 hours. Any who drink from it become immune to sleep for 6d6 hours, but become jittery and suffer -1 on Dexterity-based skill checks.


I wonder why none of the Paizo staffers haven't weighed in.

358: The nearest corpse on the surface of the planet that the bean is planted on becomes a plague zombie.

359: The planter begins bleeding profusely from the eyes. Aside from the mess, this is not debilitating in any way. The effect lasts indefinitely, and upon death passes to the nearest living humanoid with eyes.

The afflicted may spend a feat to learn how to squirt blood at creatures' eyes, as a touch attack with a range of 30 ft. A creature hit is blinded until it takes a move action to wipe off the blood.


Also, you can supply any blood mages or vampires in the party.:)


bump?

360:A wooden alter grows. It's trimmed with vines and leaves. Any metal weapon placed there rusts away to nothing and is replaced by a wooden club with a constant shillelagh spell on it. A metal shield or buckler is replaced with a hardwood tower shield. This works once per person, per day.

361: Every character in the party (including NPCs, if any) must succeed at a DC 20 Will saving throw. On a failed save, that member of the party becomes extremely ugly and warty, and hair grows in profuse on his/her face. The character is blinded until he spends 5 rounds shaving off the hair of his face.


362: As soon as the bean touches the earth, it poofs into a life-sized replica of the last person to touch the bean, naked and with a ridiculous grin on its face. The body is entirely inert and despite its realistic appearance, is made of plastic.


Cellulose plastic of course.:)

363. The bean grows into a tree made of bone. This tree is permanent, & cannot be destroyed. Every day, the tree spawns 1d10 skeletons, & a graveknight.

364: The bean grows into a cup that can produce an infinite amount of salt, but only if the salt is scooped out from the cup (turning the cup upside down does not do anything).

366: The planter gains a fear of beans. This functions as per the Phobia insanity, and cannot be cured by anything short of a miracle, wish, or divine intervention.

367: A holy avenger grows, but GOOD characters that touch it gain negative levels.

368: The bean rises up out of the ground and begins glowing, as per the light spell, with a couple exceptions.

1) the light counts as natural sunlight for the purposes of harming creatures and growing plants.

2) the light cannot be extinguished by anything short of a miracle or wish (though covering it in many layers of fabric or other such material still works to dampen the light).

369: Once planted the bean immediately explodes out of the ground, transforms into a strange looking mask, and wraps itself around the head of the person who planted it. This mask can only be removed by a Remove Curse spell or a similar effect. Once removed, the bean mask is destroyed.

Characters wearing a bean mask will have their natural ability to see or smell blocked and will lose any Sight or Scent abilities. They will gain Blindsight (30 ft) instead. The mask will also provide enough food, water, and air for the wearer to survive.

370: A grape vine grows up with ordinary grapes and 2 masks. The masks are wooden coated with white paint. One is the mask of tragedy, that provides the wearer with the full benefits of an oracle curse if they have the appropriate curse. Thus if they are blind they gain the oracle curse of clouded vision instead and all levels count. The mask of comedy provides the spells hideous laughter, rage, and confusion once a day each as gaze attacks at the minimum level.

372: the bean grows into a small booklet that functions as a codex of the infinite planes, but only weighs 1/2 a pound. Sadly, the compression of all of this magical energy increases the DC of any spell effects created by the book that apply to the caster 10 higher.

373: The Terrasque awakens in the demiplane of intelligent cats. Only the planter knows of the feline's plight!
