Recently I was Dming a 5th edition version of Zenopus's ruined tower dungeon for some new players. Always love the classics when I can use them, and the dungeon is really very simple and relatively easy to convert on the fly.
In rolling up treasure I decided that I would every once in a while roll on the PHB trinkets page to make things a bit interesting. Every once in a while changing up the trinkets a bit to make them roll into the story or be useful.
In room P within the closet they found a bunch of random supplies, one of which (rolls on table...98 - Griffon Grease) I announced it as Gryffindor Grease for a little laugh. The characters were suddenly very excited. Not quite understanding why and not getting my laugh I carried on.
The next door they tried was rusted stuck. So of course they applied the "Griffon Door Grease" to it and tried to open the door. I was laughing so hard I had tears in my eyes and of course gave them advantage to the roll.
Any good stories about items gone sideways out there??
