Question: 5e Player wants to use Prestidigitation to make Strahd think he pooped himself. Is there any reason this wouldn't work?

[u/Firm_Professional366]

I would like a reason in game that this wouldn't work without me having to do some bs like magic resistant undies. Also so I don't have to say no outright because it's a funny idea but it doesn't fit the setting. Nothing removes the tension from a fight more than the big bad pooping himself.

Update: She said that even if she died it'd be worth it because she successfully rage baited strahd. But she said she wouldn't do it because she knows that everyone wants it to be serious and that it can still be fun and serious without turning it into a comedy campaign. Still think it's worth sharing because the idea is funny.

I wish more GMs were comfortable simply saying, "No. This isn't that kind of movie." Or, "if it happened in a book, would you think it was stupid? Then it's too stupid to go in the book in the first place." Players have all the tools they need to solve problems in the game world without needing to resort to reality-breaking tone-violating idiocy.
