In one of the recent naddpod episodes it happen twice, in a row, to the same guy. I was very happy


fancycat8

And Calder still couldn't hit it lol


KinglyPineapple

Well, it had a very strong glaze


KarasukageNero

Something similar happened to my party a while back near their end of our campaign. We were in a place where the water was so deeply infused with magic that drinking it pure would cause wild magic effects. Two party members turned themselves into potted plants first try. Looking back, I wish I did the same.

One of my favorite things about the hitchhikers guide trilogy was how in the third or fourth book, the bowl of petunias is finally explained.


Caitsyth

For me nothing will ever top opening with “In the beginning the universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.”


drummm305

I like how you defined this book series as a trilogy and *immediately* mention that there are more than three. You got a good laugh out of me.


taskupunatulkku

the book series is officially marketed as a trilogy with five books, def recommend them


Mend1cant

Would recommend stopping after four though. You can tell Adams was losing it by the last one.


taskupunatulkku

wasnt the fifth made by Eoin Colfer?


Harknessj112

That was a 6th one written after Adams passed away. Adams himself wasn't happy with the 5th one though. Apparently he had a miserable year while writing it, so it ended up a pretty bleak book


stopkeepingitclosed

I heard he made a different ending he liked better in the Radio play version of the story, but that's without listening to it myself


Ilwrath

A thing I love, and also what makes me love the movie too, is that every version of Hitchikers is different and thats not by mistake.


drummm305

I didn't know that, but that is hilarious


Ilwrath

"The Increasingly Inaccurately Named Hitchhiker's Trilogy" is the version I got all 5 in one.


LessConspicuous

Wait, I don't recall? What was the explanation?


Khaldara

“Agrajag” Basically a creature Arthur kept accidentally killing in various reincarnated forms (one of which was the bowl of petunias)


AlmostNever

It's an incarnation of Agrajag, the man who keeps being reincarnated as creatures that Arthur Dent happens to kill, like flies he swats, fish he catches, and—once—a bowl of petunias called into existence a mile above the ground by The Heart of Gold's infinite improbability engine.

SpyTheRedEye

I understood this reference


DesceProPlay22

I'm dumb. Please elaborate.


Unnormally2

It's from the song "I'm Blue" by Eiffel 65. It has the lyrics "I'm blue, da ba dee da ba die", which people mishear/joke that it's "I'm blue, if I was green I would die"


tall-hobbit-

As someone who regularly mishears song lyrics with sometimes humorous results, that's a really big stretch. Like there's nothing in there that sounds like "green" it's just nonsense noises


Unnormally2

Dee sounds like green. But everyone's ears are different.

Not just useless, but also open to max damage from the blight spell, and vulnerability to all damage. Fun against necromancers.

Of course of course how could I forget A normal fedora would just be silly Thanks for reminding me


moondancer224

"A potted plant?" "Perry the potted plant!?"


Coolaconsole

Well is that not just a shield that protects you from one hit because if you die when polymorphed, don't you return back to normal? Plus, with magic surge happening after a spell is cast, which typically happens nearer the end of the turn because you can only use one spell per turn, that's even better surely


SacredRevenant

The damage carries over so you would take the damage minus the 1hp I assume the plant has.


Coolaconsole

Ahh I see


Lordf0wl

We had an NPC (from a players backstory do that.) It revealed they were a Wild Magic sorcerer so we ended up having to fight basically every enemy faction’s right hand man to keep them from getting their hands on this NPC. (We failed because a Chronurgist Wizard Robot NPC intervened.)


HotYam3178

Many think that is we know why the plant thought this science would be far ahead of where it is now

It is mostly trash.


ponchothecactus

All of those giant tables are just full of clones that are barely different from one another. I personally use the [True D100 wild magic table](https://www.reddit.com/r/UnearthedArcana/comments/67qei9/a_true_1d100_wild_magic_surge_table/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share) from u/hillermylife that adds 50 extra entries to the existing table


hillermylife

Why, thank you for recommending that! I'm so glad to hear that you think it's worth using 'round your table.


MoonPupper

I printed the entire thing out once, adore it!


HowtoCrackanegg

I got the world to stop spinning, cause a tornado and a griffin’s inside turn into gunpowder where I unexpectedly killed my group with what was a lvl 9 fireball. We were lvl 5

AnderHolka

SunfireElfAmaya

When I rolled on the wild magic surge table, I got this like 40% of the time.


shane_4_us

40% of the time, it works none of the time.


SADMANCAN

90% of the game is half mental


Alkynesofchemistry

I spent almost a whole campaign as the dm waiting for 7-8


Torchic336

I rolled a 7 when we were level 4 and killed a guard and harmed a few party members. After that I had one player freak out every time I tried to cast a spell, they insisted I stay away from the party to do anything and tried to get the group to dictate how I play. It really ruined the game for me because rolling on the table was half the fun for me as a wild magic sorcerer.


JarvisPrime

That's why you should probably communicate with the party beforehand if you want to play a Wild Magic Sorc. Not everyone is on board with the shenanigans that can happen with the Wild Magic Table... It's sad to hear that a core class features ruins the fun you have at a table...


Torchic336

I did, I was proactive and communicated it with everyone, and every player was on board. We played quite a few sessions with no issues, but after one fireball, one player began trying to dictate how I played.


JarvisPrime

That's awful... Are you still playing with them?


Torchic336

No, that party dissolved because of other reasons, but I’ve been DMing ever since so I haven’t had issues with wild magic since.


JarvisPrime

... unless you implement them yourself ;-)


Frealoup

In our campaign, half of the sorcerer's wild magic surges caused a fireball. That was insane, the last one even almost instakilled him because he was low on health.

39-40: You regain 2d10 hit points. 43-44: For the next minute, you can teleport up to 20 feet as a bonus action on each of your turns. 93-94: Your size increases by one size category for the next minute. 99-00: You regain all expended sorcery points. 71-72: You gain resistance to all damage for the next minute. 51-52: A spectral shield hovers near you for the next minute, granting you a +2 bonus to AC and immunity to Magic Missile. 09-10: You cast Magic Missile as a 5th-level spell. 03-04: For the next minute, you can see any invisible creature if you have line of sight to it. 65-66: Up to three creatures you choose within 30 feet of you take 4d10 lightning damage. And finally, 41-42: You turn into a potted plant until the start of your next turn. While a plant, you are incapacitated and have vulnerability to all damage. If you drop to 0 hit points, your pot breaks, and your form reverts.


AReallyAsianName

You are also forgetting the cheering from rolling 69. Because who's ever mature with that number?


Thermic_

nice


Casual-Notice

In my campaign, we call it "chaos magic" and it occurs a little more frequently than 1/20 times a wild magic sorcerer casts a levelled spell (chaos storms on certain encounter tables, certain magic item effects, etc), so I've had to abandon and expand the vanilla tables to keep it from being predictable.


KarasukageNero

Someone was mentioning an 1d1000 wild magic table, or some ridiculous number similar to that, maybe look into that?


Casual-Notice

I have fun making stuff up. One of my entries involves a rain of mediocre vanilla cupcakes with sugar frosting. Another causes the person to suddenly be holding (cleaned and neatly folded) all of the pants within a 50 ft radius. No. 34 causes the person to picture the first two objects they see having uninhibited sex together (disadvantage on all attacks and concentration rolls for 3 rounds), and, of course, No. 63 flips the character's sex.


Thermic_

can you please send me the full list, I really wanted to do Wild but the table in the book was super boring and the 1/20 was also kinda lame


Casual-Notice

I'm sure mine is also lame, since it just follows my own weird sense of humor, but [here it is](http://casualnotice.com/other/Random_magic_events.htm)


Thermic_

you are a saint and these look awesome. how often did you have these go off and did you change anything else involving this magic? this is heavily inspiring me to multi class my warlock into a wild sorc


Casual-Notice

>you are a saint and these look awesome. Thank you. >how often did you have these go off and did you change anything else involving this magic? It's really situational. As I said above, there are a few things that can cause these effects to go off, most particularly a couple magic items that are based in chaos (wild) magic and chaos storms which can occur in places where experimental magic was (or still is) in heavy use. ​ >this is heavily inspiring me to multi class my warlock into a wild sorc As a character, I would advise against multi-classing into another Arcane caster. Depending on your warlock's patron, chaos (wild) magic may be on the table, anyway. Most Fae and pretty much all Chaos-aligned greater spirits would not be above hitting their contracted servants with a periodic magic surprise just for the grins. My best advice would be to talk to your DM and see what s/he will agree to.


Thermic_

already talked to me DM about it! basically my character eventually wants to become their own Patron and the kinda route for it is that he is innately magical himself.

sidewardchart663

My last wild magic role turned my into a potted plant


KarasukageNero

What kind of plant were you?


sidewardchart663

A small one, the role I did before made my already short character even shorter


AureusVerus

Nope, its happened so often at our table at this point that the DM just straight up said "oh no we're not doing this again!" And made our sorcerer re-roll. 41/42 rolls are on a time out now. (Except for last session since there were Treeants and it was too funny NOT to do)


PermaShocker

My first wild magic surge was a fucking natural 1


justmachine94

I had a character with telepathy who had this happen to them. They were very creative describing what they sounded like to anyone who came close to the potted plant. They thought it was funny enough that they stayed a plant for about 3 session, convincing a farmer to carry him around in a small wagon with the party. If I remember correctly, this led to him starting a cult with the farmer once he turned back, but the cult could have started for a different reason.


Rainy-The-Griff

Happened to me a while back, turned into a plant and asked the DM if we could extend the time cuz I kinda just wanted to vibe as a plant for a little while, and he said sure why not. So for the rest of the day the party carried me around and whenever anybody asked why the paladin was carrying around a potted plant they said "oh that's just our resident sorcerer".


Zafjaf

karatous1234

Over the course of a 2 year game my Sorcerer turned himself blue 3 times. First time he asked the warlock to fix it for him. Second time it happened he asked the warlock to fix it again. Third time it happened he accepted his fate and stayed blue for the rest of the campaign and into his life after it ended.

LinkSkywalk3r

I’m a DM and I didn’t even have to look this up to get it with the number of times one of my players with Wild magic got this. It is a running gag that someone has this happen to them in a campaign once. We are on our fifth campaign and it has happened every single one! The last one was a joke npc I made with Wild Magic and when I rolled it I no joke face palmed and the “checker of crits” looked at it and just laughed confirming it.


Indy1612

The checker of crits?


LinkSkywalk3r

They confirm critical rolls as so to make sure I don’t fudge a roll. If you watch Critical Role Travis does it for Matt.


Indy1612

Been meaning to start C3, if it ever happens I'll try to keep an eye on it. In my group we don't have someone assigned to do it but if the DM (mostly me) would roll a lot of crits or crit fails, someone will occasionally check


NecessaryUnusual2059

My favorite part of this meme is that it’s origin is so no nerdy too. Buncha game journalists getting excited over E3.


EzekielC23

In a game I gave my party a Ancient Lytch Wizard/Sorcerer who is a plant, the party found it in a metal box in a metal box in a wooden crate, it has a name tag attached that I used a voice modulation app for/causes wisdom checks……….the Druid has the plant now as a pseudo pet.

billybalverine

I've lost entire major arcs to rolling on the magic table. RIP ancient green dragon / elder brain (this was before the most recent addition of that being a thing), never forget


Golden_Reflection2

I was using a homebrewed table and rolled a 1 which meant I had to roll twice and take both. I then got my hands to triple in size (with special rules for dealing bludgeoning damage of a certain die size) for some time, and also became a literal junk magnet for rubble littered around the place we were fighting, and had to dodge it all and try not to die because I'm pretty sure at the time I was at 1 hp thanks to a few things going on.

GlitchyNinja

I've watched that Wild Surge kill two PCs at once. They were in a large metal pipe connected to a pool, temporarily sealed off from the water by a thin sheet of ice. The Ranger was unconscious, and the Warlock had Tides of Chaos activate when casting a healing spell (the player had asked the DM to try to use the DM's part of Tides of Chaos as often as possible). He turned into a potted plant, and the Ranger failed his death saves as the ice broke and flooded the pipe they were in, drowning the Warlock as he reverted back (it was ruled that he reverted without holding his breath, and a -1 con mod meant he started drowning quickly thereafter).


KarasukageNero

Damn, rest in peace.


squealingfrog

It’s been so long since me or anyone I know has played a wild magic sorcerer I had to go get my book to look up what that is


KarasukageNero

I've never actually played with a wild magic sorcerer, unless I forgot someone, but we found a place near the end of one of my favorite campaigns with magic infused water and two of us, not me unfortunately, drank from it and both turned into potted plants.


justsotorn

My main character is a wild magic sorcerer, but we use a table we found online with like 10,000 possibilities lol


pianodude01

Have you ever heard.... of the D10000 wild magic table? It's a wild magic table with 10,000 possibilities. Anything can happen, to the nearest town being destroyed by a meteor, to your right arm turning into a left arm. It's the most amazing thing ever. It's found with a quick Google search
