Vicious Mockery Ideas Dnd Bard
Need some easy and readily available Vicious Mockery Insult Ideas?
Here is an easy list of 150 Amazing Vicious Mockery Insult Ideas!

So, you want to play a bard but don’t have those IRL (in real life) insults to throw around? Makes sense, you are probably a respectable person. But have no fear, House of Lolth is here!

As I’m sure you already know, bards are masters of the spoken and sung arts. They are basically the masters of two things, being horny, and the cantrip spell “Vicious Mockery.” With this bad boy, bards turn that old saying “sticks and stones might break my bones but words will never hurt me” into complete nonsense.

In this post, we go into the art of Vicious Mockery insults, looking at creative and funny ways bards use words as weapons to taunt, provoke, and ultimately redrum on the battlefield.

Since there are so many, we’ve broken them down into groups, Direct Insults, Yo Mama jokes, Directly Combat Related, Magic Related, and Directly Combat Related Vicious Mockery Insults. And as a bonus, we have included a DND Vicious Mockery Table you can use with a D8.
