Now that I've read and rated 60 of these Appendix N Jam Bad Boys, here are just some of my favorites in no particular order. I'll probably make an App. N post-mortem that goes more into criticism at some point. I would run all of these.

sneak peak at a fey 5.5E supplement I'm working on. I think this is one of the most upsetting spells I've ever designed 😇
Bone Trade
Conjuration Cantrip (Druid, Sorcerer, Warlock, Wizard)
Casting Time: Action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S, M* (a wooden stick, utensil, or rod)
Duration: Instantaneous
A creature you can see within range must succeed on a 
Charisma saving throw, or you replace one of the bones in its 
leg or foot with a wooden stick of approximately equal size. 
The bone appears in your hand. The target takes 2d4 necrotic 
damage and its movement Speed is reduced by 10.
At the beginning of your next turn, the bone returns to the 
target’s body and the stick returns to you. The target’s Speed 
returns to normal. Any damage sustained by the bone itself in 
the interim is mended.
This spell has no effect on creatures which do not have bones.
Accepted Gift. If you offer the stick to the target before 
casting this spell and it accepts it, it has Disadvantage on the 
saving throw.
Fool’s Gratitude. If the target of its own free will thanks you 
for the trade (even sarcastically), the trade becomes perma-
nent. This is a curse effect.
*The stick is consumed if the trade becomes permanent, as it remains 
in the target’s leg.
Cantrip Upgrade. You can replace one additional bone and the 
damage and speed reduction increases when you reach levels 
5 (4d4; 15 ft), 11 (5d4; 20 ft), and 17 (6d4; 25 ft).

so there's a new site that's a lot like cohost.org, except it has some clever architecture to be super cheap to run (all posts are stored in people's own browsers (also great for privacy), and images can only be stored on external sites like imgur or catbox or other socials like bsky) noterook.net

this is far from the first time ICE has murdered innocent civilians, and the public reaction to this event undoubtedly has a lot to do with the special status white women hold in our society but that also says a lot about how bold ICE has become. if they can kill her, they can kill anyone.
