Player: Wait, how does that even work? States make criminal laws not cities. What's he going to do, start giving Punisher tickets for shooting people without a license?

I'm really bending the rules to let a character use "create food" as an offensive weapon causing nausea via creating rotten fish in combat time. Its all in good fun


Demon Character: "That's a critical failure"
GM: "That means we get to pull out the spell failure table"
Demon Character: "Does that mean I target my friends with fireball?"
GM: "Not unless your casting fireball. The famous result is summoning a demon. on an 18"
Demon Character"... But I am a demon!"
<rolls>
Demon Character: "16, that's close to 18!"
GM Reads: "Spell has reverse of intended effect"
Demon Character: "So I create a good smelling fish?"
GM: "You create the tastiest smelling fish you have ever made in your entire life. "
Cat Folk Character (who in-story loves the rotten fish): "This is a win either way!
