Me: My Dragonborn pulls out her symbol and tells the party that she’s a cleric. 

Unknowing to the party, her deity is Tiamat. Her symbol looks like a 3 pointed star with some dragon heads designed on each extension. It represents this diety as there’s a flat painting of a white and a black dragon. Their heads and necks chase each around the circle in a clockwise direction much like a yin and yang illustration in the middle of the amulet while 3 other different colored dragon heads protrude on their own facing the same direction clockwise. The outer heads are embossed and sculpted with fine detail rendering three different dragons about 100 degrees apart as their necks meet at the center circle with the two black and white dragons. This strange object glistens as it’s being shown to the party while they pander about it’s significance. 

The party seems to be understanding what I’m explaining as I add one more horrific detail to make it painfully clear.

My cleric holds the middle of the symbol between her thumb and pointer finger, flicks the symbol with her other hand and the 3 dragon heads spin for a very long time. And then almost at the same time the players realize the shocking truth.

Party: IS YOUR CLERICS’ SYMBOL A FIDGET SPINNER?!

Me: Yes
