Since you asked for tips on improving these, remember to think about probability, especially when doing tasks with lots of dice involved. On 6d6 there's almost a 1 in 10 chance of rolling a 21 (not just around 21 or over 21, exactly 21) but only a 1 in 46,000 or so chance of rolling a 36, so the apron possibility here might as well not exist. I sometimes run things through a dice calculator like this one to see if a dare I'm making gets reasonable numbers. You can use different sizes of dice to change up the odds while keeping the same number of possibilities, and put results you want to see more often toward the middle while putting ones that mean the roller got really lucky or unlucky toward the edges.

I do like the dare, and the options show creativity I don't see in a lot of posts here. I may borrow some as outcomes for my own dares.
