With wild magie surge tables being. 100% randomly organized ‘You can still use this 4300 table randomly if you want, in fact MOST of the time that is how I use it. BUT having 3 different categories accomplishes 2 things. it limits its overall usefulness 1, When the players look atthe dice on the table, they will be looking at the d20 and know © NO when its a low number and 0000 YES when its a high number 2, It lets you create items/ elfects that have a GOOD or BAD result baked into it so there is SOME control over the positive or negative impact of these things. Like cresting effects/ boons/ items with BUFFS of only Good effects of ccursed items/ effects/ or even monsters that have Bad effects Triccer, Detay AND DURATION (On ALL of these Wild Magic Surges I do not usually have a specific time duration on how long each of thes last. 1 also do not usually put exact DC’ on saving throws or even exact, damage dealt. There are tables for DM's to deal appropriate damage for challenge evel if you need that (its onthe back of most DM screens) BUT Iwan these things tobe customizable to what makes sense/ what level you are encountering these swild magic surges at, I want this table to be useful fora level 3 one shot... AND for a FULL Campaign where you can use {efrom level 1-20 and never have to worry about it falling off You can choose how powerful these eects are Triggers are for what causes these surges to happen (as ‘explained in the items below as well. But you can easily add in ‘wild magic into your game / travel / city / group Delays are ifthe wild surge happens the moment the trigger happens...orif there isa delay and the surge happens later on ‘These are fun for making itharderon the players to figure out what exactly is causing this to happen Duration is probably the most important because I want it to be up to the DM how long this thing lasts, What makes the most sense forthe story? They just have this coo! effec, fon them and LOVE it.. maybe its a permanent thing. Or maybe thee isa realy ba effect chat they HATE and would be awful to have... well have it drop off right after combat is ‘over or they wake up the next morning totally fine. YOU as, the DM know what would tell the est story and be the most memorable, Maybe have that negative effect be “permanent” and the place they are going to now has a mystical healer in town that can cure them of this effec...fora price (side quest! story hook fete) ‘TRIGGERS ‘What causes a wild magic surge Rolling Nat 1's / Nat 20's Enemies or Allies rolling Nat 1's / Nat 20's Combat Starts You/ Ally/ Enemy falls unconscious or dies ‘Take a certain type of damage Something VERY specific Detays ‘When the Wild Magic Surge occurs 1. No delay, it happens as SOON as the trigger happens (this ishow mos ofthe items work) 2. Next skill check/ saving throw attack rll they make 3. 1 min/ 1 hout/ 1 day after the trigger happens 4. If ts in combat it can have a 1 round delay all the way through when combat ends 5. At the DM's discretion when ‘the time is right” (my personal favorite) Durations How long the Wild Magic Surge effect lasts 1.

On DM discretion (my personal favorite)‘Wiip Macic Sorcerer Ast LEVEL ‘Wp Macic Surce ‘Once per turn, when you casta spell of Istlevel or higher, you ‘must make a "Surge Check” and roll your “Surge Die”. Your Surge Die stars off as a d12 and becomes more unstable over ne. Ifyou roll a1 on the Surge Die then a wild magic surge is iggered and you roll on the Wild Magic Surge Table. ‘Additionally, when you tap into your meta magic, you increase the chance of a wild surge happening. For every sorcery point you use, increase the number needed to trigger wild magic surge by 1. So, ifyou cast spell and use I sorcery point, rolling a 2 or lower on your Surge Die, when you make your "Surge Check’, will trigger a Wild Magic Surge. Upon rolling a 1, your Surge Die becomes more unstable and becomes a d10, when you trigger another wild magic surge it erodes again to a d8, d6, then finally a d4. When you along rest your Surge dice recovers by 1 stage (would go from ad6 toa d8) Ties or Cuaos ‘You manipulate the wild energies of chance and chaos to gain advantage on one attack roll, ability check, or saving throw, ‘Once you use this you must finish a long rest before you can use this feature again, ‘Additionally, you instantly regain the use of this once you make a "Surge Check” 6TH LEVEL Benp Macic For the next minute after you make a surge check, anytime magic is used within 120 feet of you (spells, magic items, anything the DM considers “magic’) « Wild Magic Surge is triggered, Any surges you trigger during this time are considered good, or work in your favor. AS soon as a wild surge occurs you snap out of it and the Bending Magic is over. 47H LEVEL ControLiep CHaos You start to gain some control over the Wild Magic within you. Whenever you trigger a wild magic surge, the 420 you roll for Bad, Neutral, Good can only be “Bad” on a result of a 1.Ifyou rol 2, 3,4 or 5 itis now considered to be Neutral ‘Additionally, anytime you cast a spell you can spend a Sorcery Point to prevent you from rolling a "Surge Check’, 18TH LEVEL Sorcery SuRGES Whenever you cast a spell that triggers a wild magic surge you are able to spend additional sorcery points for free. You ‘ean spend up to 3 sorcery points on the spell you east or on the wild magic surge effec (if't's possible/ the DM allows it)
