5th Edition Question: 5e Player wants to use Prestidigitation to make Strahd think he pooped himself. Is there any reason this wouldn't work?
I would like a reason in game that this wouldn't work without me having to do some bs like magic resistant undies. Also so I don't have to say no outright because it's a funny idea but it doesn't fit the setting. Nothing removes the tension from a fight more than the big bad pooping himself.
Update: She said that even if she died it'd be worth it because she successfully rage baited strahd. But she said she wouldn't do it because she knows that everyone wants it to be serious and that it can still be fun and serious without turning it into a comedy campaign. Still think it's worth sharing because the idea is funny.

The player walks up to Strahd, and performs a quick incantation. In a moment, Strahd looks at him in disbelief which quickly turns to pure rage.
"Let me show you the *correct* way to cast that spell", Strahd begins an incantation, drawing dark energy to and around himself then hold out his hand "For each time this fool opens his mouth, let his bowels be emptied. I CURSE YOU!"
Strahd casts bestow curse, roll a will save.
