Your bard is going to cast 'Vicious Mockery'. What is actually said? Post good vicious mockeries, both derived and created.

 

Here are some derived from my 'Insults of Shakespeare' coffee mug:

 

"Thou bolting hutch of beastliness!"

 

"Thou mountain of mad flesh!"

 

"Thou long tongued babbling gossip! Not so much brain as ear wax!"

 

"Thou lump of foul deformity who encompasses all of the foul infections that the sun sucks up. Thou art a boil, a plague sore!"

 

"You rampallian! You fustilarian!"

 

"Lewdly inclined, beetle headed, flap=ear'd knave!"

 

"Look it is the veriest varlet that ever chewed with a tooth!"

When facing goblins:  "Your mother is a Kobold!"

 

When facing anyone else: "Your mother is a Goblin!"

More Shakespeare:

 

I know you for a knave; a rascal; an eater of broken meats; a base, proud,
shallow, beggarly, three-suited, hundred-pound, filthy,
worsted-stocking knave; a lily-liver'd, action-taking, whoreson,
glass-gazing, superserviceable, finical rogue;

one-trunk-inheriting slave; one that wouldst be a bawd in way of
good service, and art nothing but the composition of a knave,
beggar, coward, pander, and the son and heir of a mongrel bitch;
one whom I will beat into clamorous whining, if thou deny the
least syllable of thy addition.

Just go to the 'Drow only in my campaign' thread and then add the choice words writers may have avoided using. I mean, that thread went for ages, so there's alot of material. Which was general mockery rather than anything more than 'I don't like you not liking something'.

To a male elf:

 "floppy eared lack-arrow"

 

To a dwarf:

"crumbling clod of half dried dragon dung"

 

To a red dragon:

"a tepid bedwarmer, shaped by a lewd gnome and recently soiled by an incontinent dog."

I like the idea of using refluffed bits from Weird Al's Sports Song:
"Our stats are thoroughly impressive
Our leader really has the Midas touch
Our heroes are fast and strong and brave
And your guys, eh, not so much"

Your mother got involved with a bear in a cold winter night.

To a rival bard's singing:

 

I hear the cacaphonous cries of some piss-a-bed man-child.

 

A good fall back:

 

Thou pustulent, malodorous wad of dragon-snot.

More Shakespeare:

 

The enemy gets to go first but misses:

"What do I think of THAT?  Scorn.  Derision.  Slight regard."

 

The Bard goes right before the Fighter:

"Cry havoc!  And unleash the dogs of war!"

 

From Excalibur, Because it's just overall awesome:

"An nall nathrock!  Oothvas bethod!  Doch'hel dienvae!"  (Spoken as did Morgana, not Merlin.)

 

The enemy is based on ISIS jihadis:

"Did you have bacon for breakfast ?!"

To a hill giant:

 

It is indeed some cumbersome wee mallet that has not the strength to heft its club-- which appears as a wilted twig in its fat hand.

This wasn't a 5e game, or even a D&D game at all, but I used this in a Dresden Files game with my half-dragon character:

 

"Iscariel, Queen of Ravens, the Bane of Gomorrah. One would think that even a third-rate impersonation of Uriel such as yourself could have seen what was right under her nose."

 

(Said character was a young teenager who had been under her institutional care for over a decade without her realizing.)

I can't really repeat the ones my players use but in involves various bodily orifaces and usually something like Ogres and the NPCs parents or parentage.

Long toothed, low browed, grunted tongues.

"You will go down in the history books.  In a footnote.  Maybe"

 

"As I am a Bard, now all the world shall know just how good you are in a fight."

 

The enemy gains its power from the Divine:

"Did you learn that from -insert name of dead god here- ?"

 

After surviving enemy's alpha strike:

"I ... AM ... LAZARUS !"

 

Facing magic-user:

"I've seen better spells from an Apprentice."

For that skald who delivers a cutting word more scathing than any sword stroke:
 

There's not a dry pant-leg to be found among you or your wallowing cohort.


Crow-fodder and sword-slaker I name you.
Axe-biter and pin-cushion and blood-fountain.
Your innards shall be the feast of maggots,
and such blood of yours shall we spill upon this ground that passing stirges shall suck at the dirt tens years hence.
A rat-snack you are, or would be but the poor vermin might vomit up your corpse-morsels finding them so perfused with craven humours.

 

We shan't bother to bury you as the earth herself should refuse to embrace you.

 


You are but a putrescent pustule upon the ass of your race.

Your mother was so foul that you were sired only for the want of a sheep.
What’s that? You have brothers? Then your mother must have laid waste to the flocks for miles around that your father could not find the solace of a ewe.

"2 Orcs walk into a bar, then 1 Orc walks out.  What happened? ... You STUPID Orc, 1 Orc walked out of the bar !!"

Beholder:

 

"Yo' mama's a Gibbering Mouther mudball !"

 

(sing song voice) "Monodrones are cuter. Monodrones are cuter."

 

"You talk like a Gas Spore, and you think like one too."

Our warlock viciously mocked a flameskull about its loss of a certain appendage...  It rolled a 1, so I suppose it had a flashback of an ex-lover (an old flame, if you will).

More Shakespeare:

 

When you have an evening, watch the Kenneth Branaugh / Emma Thompson version of Much Ado About Nothing.  Their characters spend most of the play insulting each other very cleverly.  Take notes.

Pentadrone:

 

Your "mother" is a Schrödinger's Box.

 

 

(note: it's the air quotes around mother, that's really insulting to a Pentadrone)

Dwarf to Dwarf: "Your grandmother had a bigger beard than those wispy goblin hairs on your chin!" (best delivered drunkenly)

 

To Half-orc Bard: "Your mother's so ugly, there's a reason your father is Stevie Wonder."
