Natural 1 Magic Effects Table

# Natural 1 Wild Magic Effects Table

## Guess I'll Die

The purpose of this table is to provide a Wild Magic table with more impressive (and potentially challenging) magical effects than the Wild Magic Surge Table from _The Player's Handbook_ (Wizards of the Coast, 2014). This table, as well as the [Natural 20 Wild Magic Effects Table](https://www.gmbinder.com/share/-NA1SasEjg4yAFpCvVw7), are especially useful for DMs with magic-wielding PCs.

| 01 – 02 | Roll on this table at the start of each of your turns for the next minute, but ignore any consequent rolls of 1 or 2. |
