You like wild surges? This has a lot of them. (1 Viewer)

It is a d10,000 chart of surge effects. You never have to worry about getting the same result twice with it. I gave it a quick skim and it looks like it should work fairly well for the 5e chaos sorcerer as well as 2e wild mages (I never got the books with the 3e or 4e versions) and Wand/Rod of Wonder.

Now if he would only write one for the Bag of Beans.

Zounds!

You know, while I can't imagine actually using this table in play, some of these effects are a very nice source of general-purpose weird magical traits. Things like 'any blade that has drawn the caster's blood is invisible to him' or 'any fires set by the caster produce no heat' are exactly the sort of bizarre supernatural 'tells' which are common for wizards in folklore, but very rare in RPGs. Well worth skimming through, I'd say.

Interesting. I will leave it up to my player if they want this because some of this stuff could mess their character up!

10,000 Random Magical Events are AWESOME. I've used these anytime a spellcaster botched a spell no matter the game. The most chilling words a DM can say is "No visible effect. " :
The best one I've seen was "The next undead you encounter becomes mortal again and ages to their current years". Which I said was that 'No Visible Effect'. The group were investigating a realm of a lich obsessed with petrification. The poor lich got 6 words into his introductory monologue before coughing and rotting before their eyes into dust. The poor PCs just stood there for 10 minutes waiting for what took out the boss

Heh, that is cool.

I was looking through some more and I think a fair number would work as 3e style curses for magic items. Some are a bit powerful (Caster can not traverse doorways for 1d12 rounds after item is used) while others (Wielder must tear on article of clothing before using item) can make for some laughs just before the DM is slain by thrown dice.

I'd like to warn you that a few of these could wreck your campaign, due to doing stuff like having the nearest city razed to the ground, or having it deserted or conquered by Orcs or Undead. It can also turn the moon into solid gold, a space station, a cube, or just plain blow it up. (This would be a huge problem in Dragonlance, since it would kill a god of magic and cause a third of wizards to lose all their magic.) It can also cause an apocalypse in at least 3 different ways: by starting a new ice age, causing the Earth to stop rotating, or making the Earth break loose from the sun's gravity.

I love this list. Obviously, any result not appropriate for the situation or campaign can be modified, ignored, or rerolled.

That is what DM interpretation is for. Looking at an orbital change for the setting's planet, I would go with a shorter year and make everything warmer. Over a few decades the temperate forest the PCs' nation was in becomes tropical. Tigers, that migrated north out of the furnace zone, mixed with black bears and elk could make for some useful chaos. Not to mention weretigers and other tropical monsters.

Wild Surge Table

A sorcerer whose innate arcane ability comes from the wild forces of chaos can unleash surges of untamed magic. When a sorcerer casts a sorcerer spell, the DM can have the player roll a d20. If a 1 is rolled, the DM may have the player roll on the Wild Magic Surge table to create a random magical effect.

Reviews for "Van Cleef and Arpels' Magic Alhambra Earrings: A Must-Have for Jewelry Collectors"

1. Sarah - 2/5 stars - I was really disappointed with the Van Cleef and Arpels Magic Alhambra earrings. The quality just didn't meet my expectations for the price point. The stones looked dull and the gold didn't have the shine I was hoping for. I have other Van Cleef and Arpels jewelry and this was definitely not up to par. I wouldn't recommend these earrings if you're looking for something with a wow factor.
2. John - 1/5 stars - These earrings were a complete letdown. The craftsmanship was subpar, with uneven edges and a cheap feel to the materials. I questioned whether they were genuine Van Cleef and Arpels pieces. The design was also underwhelming, lacking the elegance and sophistication I associate with the brand. I'll be returning these immediately and won't be purchasing from Van Cleef and Arpels again.
3. Emily - 3/5 stars - Although I didn't hate the Van Cleef and Arpels Magic Alhambra earrings, I don't think they lived up to the hype. For the price, I expected more intricate detailing and a more polished look. The size of the earrings also seemed too small for my taste. They may work for someone who prefers delicate jewelry, but they just didn't make a statement for me. I think there are better options out there for the price range.
