Magical Anomalies FAQ
Questions about this table.
What is the difference between a magical anomaly and a wild magic surge?
A wild magic surge is a sudden, momentary event triggered by spellcasting - it happens and resolves quickly. A magical anomaly is an ongoing environmental condition that persists in a specific location. Think of surges as magical lightning strikes and anomalies as magical weather systems. Anomalies define a place; surges define a moment.
How long should a magical anomaly last?
That depends on its narrative role. Some anomalies are permanent features of the landscape, as fixed as a mountain. Others might be temporary phenomena that fade over days or weeks. Ancient anomalies tend to be stable and predictable, while recent ones might fluctuate or intensify. Choose a duration that serves your story.
