I can sorta see A. I wouldn't give them anything more than an in-character best guess, though.

My answer to this question is "Probably something not good." unless it's as obvious as "Well, you'll fail the jump and fall down the pit which you haven't seen the bottom of."
"I'm going to try to calm the Mekillot."

"Ok, success means you can continue your trip."

"What about failure?"

"Indigestion."
"Oh that's not so bad. I can live with a little indigestion."
"Not this kind."

    Context is sorely lacking here, so I suspect this won't endure as awesome. Zed's players want cut & dry parameters for what happens if they fail a skill challenge.

    I had players last night tell me that A) they want to know exactly what happens when they succeed/fail at skill challenges ahead of time and B) they want to beancount travel issues.

    These are two things that I guess I'll be working in, but I'm not thrilled about it.

    Man, I'm going to start a Spelljammer type campaign with my friends with magic storms in space, ships navigating using gravity, and a robot swordsman. Anytime someone asks me how something works, I'm going to look at them like they're retarded for 10 seconds, then continue on.

    I'm guessing the indigestion is the Mekillot's (whatever that is) after it eats the dude.

    Yes, that would be the joke, but not the context.

    A Mekillot is like a giant angry heavily armored cockroach like monster. That eats you.

    Proper form would have been "Your mom is like a..."

    Everyone is already aware of how adorable and yet strangely homicidal my mother is. You don't grow up to pull the best damn desert spiky fortresses like I have for nothing.
