If you get a 1, everyone in the room or in a 40 foot radius is reduced to 1 hitpoint and paralyzed for 5 hours. If you get a 20, the person holding the flask gets to make a wish. The wish is used as follows: The player declares what they are wishing for, then rolls a D20. On a 20, the wish automatically succeeds. On a 1, the wish backfires and the opposite effect happens. For example, If you wish for eternal life and get a 1, you will die instantly. The in-between effects of rolls for wishing and rolls for what is in the flask on a nat 100 are the DM's choice. |
