Wild Magic tables FAQ

Questions about these tables.

How many results are in this category?

This category currently contains 2,166 entries across 3 tables. The total is calculated from the live built-in catalogue.

What are magical anomalies?

Environmental magical phenomena - areas where gravity shifts, time flows differently, or shadows don't match their objects. Great for making locations feel magical.

Can I use these for wild magic sorcerers?

Yes. These are original prompts rather than an official rules table, so keep the trigger, duration, saves, and other mechanics from the game you use.
