Wild Magic Surge Table, Variant (5e Variant Rule)

Revised Wild Magic Surge Table

Introduction

I’ve been running 5e for a little over a year. With two active groups and several one-off sessions, I’ve only had one player at a convention that embraced the concept of wild magic. The reasons are clear:

• Most players don’t like unpredictability. It’s enough to know that a to-hit roll might miss or they might fail a saving roll, but even a remote chance (5%) of something completely random happening is something they avoid. Even though that random occurrence may be beneficial.

• When looking at the Sorcerer class as written, the dragon-blood origin far outweighs the wild-magic origin in abilities and benefits. Unless a player just likes randomness, wild magic will rarely, if ever, be selected.

I created a couple NPC wild-magic sorcerers, and even in these cases, the players don’t want to be around these characters.

The one exception was at a convention session where one of the characters I provided was a wild-magic sorcerer. I ran the scenario twice, and in the second session, the player who picked that character wanted the randomness and we ended up having a lot of fun with it.

All this said, part of the problem with the way Wild Magic is presented in the handbook is that the Wild Magic Surge table is too small. It has fifty possible outcomes, and while they are chaotic, some of them represent too great a risk for any player to accept. My immediate response to this was the table needed to be rebuilt almost from scratch.

Wild Magic Sorcery

This homebrew does not modify the Wild Magic Sorcerer origin. That belongs in a different article. However, what it does do is expand the usability and opportunity to use Wild Magic in your campaign setting.

In my setting, all magic is wild magic, even though the players don’t realize it. Most of the casting classes have learned to control magic through rigid rituals and precise incantations. But more than just the forces of chaos as described in the Players Handbook, magic also comes from nature, from life, and even from death. An untrained or unskilled caster who taps into these forces risks a wide variety of random or chaotic side effects. Thus, the Wild Magic Surge table plays a prominent role in my campaign. Not only are there wild-magic sorcerers, but many magic items the adventurers find generate rolls on this table when used. A common curse is that whenever a caster of any type casts, they must roll on this table.

Despite my opinion about the inherent weakness of the Wild Magic sorcery origin, when compared to Draconic origins, this replacement of the surge table may make the Wild Magic choice more palatable to some players. It retains the chaotic randomness, but it tempers the serious results with adjusted probabilities. Serious, or extreme effects, are less likely to occur than nuisance effects. This alone mitigates the risk so that more players might be willing to accept it.

Using the New Table

The rules are unchanged. When a sorcerer casts a spell, after the spell is cast, roll d20. If the result is 1, roll on the Wild Magic Surge table. Other events or actions may also result in rolling on the table. However, instead of rolling d100 and going straight in, you must first roll d20 to determine which of the three columns you’re going to use. 1-3 (15%) is the first column (extreme), 4-9 (30%) is the middle column (moderate), and 10-20 (55%) is the third column (nuisance).

Optional rule: Instead of a flat 5% chance of Wild Magic Surges occurring when spells are cast, it was suggested that you roll d20 and subtract the level of the spell. If the result is 1 or less, a Wild Magic Surge occurs. This increases 1st level spells from 5% to 10%, increasing the odds by 5% each level.

A close review of the possible results will reveal that most of the effects in the original PHB table appear in this table as well. However, most of the results are new and this table has undergone moderate playtesting in my groups.
