I used a diplomacy roll instead of seduction. The result of failure was that I've got a weird stare. |

on thing to do for seduction failure is you succeed but the person is a yandere. |

We tend to get that for succeeding on Charm rolls too well. |

I once offered to teach a merchant how to dance if I could get a discount. I didn't crit fail, but I rolled really low, so he said "no thanks, I uh, already have a wife, sir..." |

Most of the time, in my groups, failed diplomacy checks mean that whatever silly nonsense the PC was spewing was thoroughly disbelieved. |

Most of the times when my players failed a check like diplomacy or subterfuge, I had the NPCs simply believe what the players were saying, not what their characters did. |

the most interesting result we have had so far is a character botching a roll where they were passing on important information so what happened is that the NPC that was going to help them instead ran off somewhere else because the character got slightly confused and stumbled over their words. the end result was a very hard fight that would have been easier with help but of course something had to go wrong |

Failed a diplomancy check. Rather than understand the evacuation, the queen thought I was putting the moves on her. |

Normally, I'd assume that someone completely misinterpreted the words said to get that kind of misunderstanding, but based on what I've seen from you, the words were probably somehow pretty similar. |

"Your highness! I have to get you out of the castle! Quickly, we must hurry before the King arrives!" |

I cannot remember any diplomacy roles, but I had a character with fencing where when I botched the roll the gm sometimes had me outright kill the opponent. |

That last one seems like a missed opportunity; I'd have gone with 'You have successfull disarmed him. He is now in immediate danger of dying of massive blood-loss from the brachial artery.' |

well, not diplomacy, but intimidation. |

Once failed a dyplomacy roll on a NPC who hated us already, when trying to convince her that we could be trusted and knew our buisness about adventureing. |

Many people interpret a botched Diplomacy check as resulting in the other party becoming angry, hostile, or at the very least insulted. Share a story about a time when a GM decided that such an antagonistic reaction wouldn't be appropriate and decided to get a little more creative with the results.
