Spell component

"I think I've found a way to protect our clothes from vermin damage. There a spell that looks promising in this old grimoire."

The thief perked up. He'd been fond of that cloak of invisibility, Now it was a joke with all the huge holes in it.

"Still working on the translation. Looks like I'll need body parts from some sort of insect. Probably a giant one so we don't have collect huge numbers of them."

The combat types exchanged looks. "Giant insects again?"

The mage kept on muttering half to himself. "Hmmm, Winged insects... Ok, some sort of Lepidoptra... nocturnal.... dull colored wings... so not butterflies."

He pored carefully over the text squiting.

"Ok, need the,,, gonads? of the male ones." More muttering. "Oh, of course, the testes!"

The bard stared at him. "You. Want. Us. To Gather. Giant. Moth Balls."

Ow...

Just remember, the ultimate compliment for a pun is lynching.

The spell crystallizes the testes.... :-)

I'd laugh, but go look up the material components of some D'n'D spells some time. Giant Moth Balls would be a relatively mild pun in comparison.

I swear, at some point many years ago, there was a bunch of the original developers who were just killing themselves laughing as they compiled the lists.
