Alternate Sorcerer

Your sorcerous power is not of this reality. Whether you were experimented on as a child, exposed to the alien lights of the Far Realm, or the descendant of a powerful Psion, within you now dwells a powerful spark of aberrant magical power.

You gain the Subtle Spell Metamagic. It doesn't count against your Metamagics Known, and you cannot replace it. You can use Subtle Spell without spending Sorcery Points a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

Your alien sorcery allows you to mutate your form. You gain one feature from the following list. As a bonus action, you can expend 2 Sorcery Points to replace it with another feature.

18th-level Aberrant feature

You can draw on your incomprehensible power to fold space and time. As an action, you teleport to an unoccupied space you can see within 120 feet. Creatures within 30 feet of the space you left must succeed on a Strength saving throw or take 3d10 force damage and are pulled in a line toward the space you left until they hit another creature or object. On a success, they take half as much damage and aren't pulled.

You can do so once between each long rest at no cost, but to use this feature again you must expend 7 Sorcery Points.

Infused with the radiant power of starlight, Cosmic Sorcerers are light to their allies and searing radiance to their enemies. Whether your Sorcery was bestowed upon you by an ancient ritual or you asked the stars for guidance at a fateful moment, you are now a living avatar of their celestial radiance. How do you channel your power? Will you bring hope or vengeance?

6th-level Cosmic Sorcery feature

You can emit bursts of radiant light to distract foes. When you are hit by an attack and the attacker is within 30 feet, you can use your reaction to spend 2 Sorcery Points and emit a burst of light, forcing your attacker to make a Constitution saving throw against your Sorcerer Spell save DC.

On a failed save, it is blinded until the start of your next turn, and the triggering attack automatically misses you.

6th-level Cosmic Sorcery feature

Your sorcery carries the searing light of the stars. You learn the Blinding Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your total Metamagics Known, and it cannot be replaced.

You have a number of free uses of Blinding Spell equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of 1), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

14th-level Cosmic Sorcery feature

The stars in the sky above call to you. While you are emitting light from Radiant Soul, you have a flying speed equal to your walking speed and you can hover.

In addition, creatures within the radius of bright light that you emit with Radiant Soul have disadvantage on all saving throws to resist the blinded condition.

18th-level Cosmic Sorcery feature

Your soul burns with the intensity of a true star, creating new stars around you. You gain resistance to radiant damage, and you learn the crown of stars spell. It doesn't count against your total Spells Known, and you cannot replace it.

At the end of each long rest, you gain the effect of crown of stars. This effect lasts until the end of your next long rest, and it only ends if you expend every mote or cast the spell again.

Sometimes the spark of magic that fuels a sorcerer comes from a divine source that glimmers within the soul. Having such a blessed soul is a sign that your innate magic might come from a distant but powerful familial connection to a divine being. Perhaps your ancestor was an angel, transformed into a mortal and sent to fight in a god's name.

Or your birth might align with an ancient prophecy, marking you as a servant of the gods or a chosen vessel of divine magic.

A Divine, with a natural magnetism, is seen as a threat by some religious hierarchies. As an outsider who commands sacred power, a Divine can undermine an existing order by claiming a direct tie to the divine.

In some cultures, only those who can claim the power of a Divine may command religious power. In these lands, ecclesiastical positions are dominated by a few bloodlines and preserved over generations.

You gain the Empowered Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your Metamagics Known, and you cannot replace it.

Moreover, whenever you cast a spell that restores hit points or grants temporary hit points, you can apply the Empowered Spell Metamagic to it, expending 1 Sorcery Point as normal. When you do so, you can reroll any number of the spell's dice.

As a bonus action on your turn, you can manifest (or dismiss) a pair of luminescent celestial wings which grant you a flying speed of 30 feet. Your celestial wings emit bright light in a 10-foot radius, and dim light another 10 feet beyond that.

These celestial wings resemble the deity to which you are most closely connected.

You realize the full power of the spark of divinity within your soul, granting you a fraction of divine immortality. If you begin your turn with less than half of your hit points remaining, but at least 1 hit point, you instantly regain hit points equal to 5 + your Charisma modifier.

Finally, if you do die, your body is permanently under the effect of the gentle repose spell. This spell effect cannot be removed short of divine intervention or a wish spell.

Your innate magic comes from draconic magic that was mingled with your blood or that of your ancestors. Most often, sorcerers with this origin trace their descent back to a mighty sorcerer of ancient times who made a bargain with a dragon or who might even have claimed a dragon parent. Some of these bloodlines are well established in the world, but most are obscure. Any given sorcerer could be the first of a new bloodline, as a result of a pact or some other exceptional circumstance.

The draconic magic within you has increased your abilities with elemental magic. You gain resistance to the damage type of your Draconic Ancestor, and whenever you cast a Sorcerer spell that deals that damage type, you can add your Charisma modifier (minimum of +1) to one damage roll of the spell.

Finally, you learn the Prismatic Spell Metamagic, and you can use it without expending Sorcery Points so long as you change its damage to that of your Draconic Ancestry.

You cannot replace this Metamagic with another, and if you already know it, you learn another Metamagic of your choice.

As a bonus action, you can cause a pair of draconic wings to manifest themselves on your back, or disappear. These wings grant you a flying speed equal to your walking speed.

You can draw upon the full power of your Sorcery to become a true dragon. Once per long rest, you can use a bonus action to transform into a dragon with a Challenge Rating equal to half your Sorcerer level, or lower, using the rules below:

Once you were an unknowable, all powerful, and far reaching otherworldly entity, but now... now you are but shade of your former self, bound in mortal flesh. The eldritch essence from which you draw your magic is all that remains of your ancient terrible power. Maybe one day you will be able to regain your true power and punish those who did this to you...

Your strange mind grants you advantage on saving throws to resist being charmed, frightened, or have your thoughts read.

Also, once per long rest when you are forced to make an Intelligence, Wisdom, or Charisma saving throw to resist the effects of a spell, you can use your reaction to force a creature that you can see within 30 feet to become the spell's target in your place. You cannot target the creature casting the spell.

You can draw on your eldritch power to move through cracks in reality. When you spend Sorcery Points, you can teleport a number of feet equal to 5 times the number of Sorcery Points spent, appearing in an unoccupied space within range.

As an action, you can reveal the mind-shattering truth behind your power, forcing creatures of your choice within 60 feet of you that can see you to make a Wisdom saving throw against your Sorcerer Spell save DC. On a failed save, they suffer the effects of tasha's hideous laughter and take 4d8 psychic damage. On a success, they take half as much damage.

You do not need to concentrate on the effects produced by this feature, but the creatures repeat their save as normal.

You can do so once between each long rest at no cost, but to use this feature again you must expend 7 Sorcery Points.

Before the primordial gods formed the world, there was only the Void. This formless, lightless, writhing chaos desires that all creation should return to it. Entropics are Sorcerers who wield the entropic power of the Void, working to undo the very acts of creation. They are often nihilistic in their outlook on life, resigned to the fact that all will eventually dissolve into the nothingness of the great primordial Void.

6th-level Entropic feature

You can draw upon your connection to the primordial Void to unmake magic. You can cast counterspell (alternate) and dispel magic at 3rd-level without spending Sorcery Points a total number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once). You regain all uses of this feature when you finish a long rest.

The overwhelming power you draw from the Void allows you to unmake creation. You learn the disintegrate spell. It doesn't count against your Spells Known and it cannot be replaced.

You can cast disintegrate with Innate Arcanum spell slots as normal, but you can also expend 9 Sorcery Points to cast disintegrate additional times at 6th-level.

As a bonus action, you can spend 1 Sorcery Point to partially discorporate until the end of your current turn. While you are in this state, you gain the following benefits:

Every so often, a mortal catches the attention of a lord or lady of the Fey. Often, the object of affection or offspring of this relationship is gifted wondrous arcane ability beyond that of other mortals. However, these mortal infatuations are usually brief, and the mortals are left to learn to use their power with little supervision or instruction. Weather you were chosen by a powerful Fey, or were the child of such a relationship or you have been blessed with the whimsical power of the Feywild.

6th-level Fey feature

At the end of each long rest, choose one emotion from the list below. Until the end of your next long rest you are resistant to its damage type, and immune to its associated condition:

14th-level Fey feature

You can slip into the Feywild when in danger. When you are forced to make a saving throw you can use your reaction to teleport to an unoccupied space you can see within 60 feet, automatically succeeding on the saving throw in the process.

You can use this reaction once per long rest at no cost, but to use it again, you must expend 7 Sorcery Points.

18th-level Fey feature

You exude the intoxicating presence of an Archfey. Whenever you cast an Enchantment spell on a creature who can see or hear you within 30 feet, it has disadvantage on its initial saving throw.

Whether you stole your power from a noble Efreeti lord, were gifted it by an ancient fire drake, or were born near a gate to the Elemental Plane of Fire, you now carry within your soul an ember of pure elemental flame. This ember of arcane fire fuels your burning soul, inflames your passions, and allows you to perform wondrous and terrible feats of fire magic.

Your sorcerous flames consume all. Once per turn when you deal fire damage to a creature you can spend Sorcery Points to cause the flames to spread outward from it, forcing other targets of your choice within 10 feet of it to make a Dexterity saving throw against your Sorcerer Spell save DC. Creatures take 1d6 fire damage for each Sorcery Point you spent on a failure, and half as much damage on a success.

You also learn the Piercing Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your Metamagics Known, and you can apply it to your Flame Sorcery Spells at no Sorcery Point cost.

You can burn your very life force to fuel the sorcerous flames. Whenever you cast a Flame Sorcery Spell, you can expend hit points in place of Sorcery Points. When you do, reduce both your current and maximum hit points by 2 for each Sorcery Point you would spend, including any spent on Metamagic.

Reductions to your hit point maximum from this feature are restored at the end of your next long rest.

Your fiery soul has become an otherworldly inferno. You gain immunity to fire damage, resistance to radiant damage, and the radius of Wild Fire increases to 30 feet.

Lastly, whenever you take damage from a creature you can see within 120 feet, you can cast hellish rebuke against it, at 4th-level, without expending Sorcery Points, and add your Charisma modifier to the spell's damage roll.

Most mortals who wield the fiendish power of the hells do so through strict contracts with devils and Archdevils. However, some cultists and other mortals connect with more chaotic demonic powers and become Infernal. Though not always evil, Infernal are fueled by the chaotic magic of the Abyss.

You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. Moreover, if you use your action to cast a spell with a casting time of 1 action or to take the Dash action, you can make one melee attack as a bonus action.

In addition, your unarmed strikes in Infernal Form count as magical for overcoming resistances and immunities.

Your sinister power can shield you from harm. When you take damage, you can use your reaction to expend Sorcery Points and reduce that damage by 1d4 per Sorcery Point spent.

If you are in your Infernal Form when you use this reaction you roll 1d6 per Sorcery Point spent, instead of 1d4.

You have mastered the fiendish power that dwells within you. Your Infernal Form lasts until you end it. Also, while you are in Infernal Form, you gain the following additional benefits:

Often born during times of great war and strife, Iron Sorcerers have an affinity for all things forged for use in war. They thrive in the midst of battle, wielding potent war magic on the front lines. Irons are formidable foes, and are sought after by captains and conquerers for their ability to turn the tide of any battle, no matter how hopeless.

You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. If you have a Blade of Strife, you can forgo one or both of these attacks to instead make spell attacks with your Blade of Strife.

The sorcerous power of your Blade of Strife has grown. You add your Charisma modifier (minimum of +1) to the damage of your Blade of Strife spell attacks.

Also, once per turn when you hit a Large or smaller target with your Blade of Strife, you can force it to make a Strength saving throw against your Spell save DC or fall prone.

14th-level Iron feature

When a creature within 10 feet of your Blade of Strife is hit by an attack, you can use your reaction to add your Charisma modifier to the target's Armor Class against that attack.

Also, your Blade of Strife now deals 2d8 damage on hit.

18th-level Iron feature

You have become a god of warfare and lay waste to your foes. When you cast steel wind strike (alternate), you can use a Blade of Strife as the material component. When you do, your Blade makes all the attacks independent of you, and you make melee spell attacks in place of melee weapon attacks.

You can cast steel wind strike (alternate) this way without expending Sorcery Points a number of times equal to 1 + your Charisma modifier, and you regain all uses when you finish a long rest.

Within you dwells a drop of pure elemental water, connecting you to the waters of the deepest oceans, babbling brooks, and frozen lakes. The gentle lapping of waves, the spray of the sea foam on the wind, the crushing darkness of the ocean depths; all these call you. Your watery magic can be as refreshing as the rains, or as destructive as great waves and flood waters.

You are as resilient as water, able to flow and reform. When you are hit by an attack, you can use your reaction to flow as water, halving any cold, bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage you would take, then immediately move up to half your speed without provoking opportunity attacks.

You can use this reaction a number of times equal to your Charisma modifier (a minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest. When you have no uses, you can spend 2 Sorcery Points to use it again.

The oceanic force within your water magic has grown. When you knock back targets with Crashing Wave, you can choose which direction they move. However, all targets affected by a spell move in the same direction.

You also learn the Piercing Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your Metamagics Known, and you can apply it to your Oceanic Sorcery Spells at no Sorcery Point cost.

You can flow as water around rocks in a stream. As a bonus action, you can expend 1 Sorcery Point to take on a Watery Form until the end of the current turn. For the duration, you can move through any gap as narrow as 1 inch, including the space of enemy creatures, and you gain resistance to damage from opportunity attacks.

In addition, while you are using your swimming speed, you can take the Dash action as a bonus action on your turn.

Your oceanic soul has become an otherworldly watery vortex. You gain immunity to cold damage, resistance to bludgeoning piercing, and slashing damage, and you are always under the effects of Watery Form unless you choose not to be.

Lastly, when you use Oceanic Resilience, you can expend Sorcery Points to unleash a watery shockwave which forces creatures of your choice within 30 feet to make a Strength saving throw. They take 1d10 cold damage per Sorcery Point spent on a failure, and half as much damage on a success.

Cold damage dealt to creatures by this effect triggers your Crashing Wave feature and knocks targets back in a line.

Your sorcerous power is drawn from the laws which underpin the multiverse itself. Your magic drives you to impose balance and order. Your power might come from the plane of absolute law, or you may have been ordained by the multiverse itself to bring the scales of order back into balance. Will you impose balance through ruthless utilitarianism or merciful justice?

You can identify and protect those who are needed to keep order. As an action, you can expend Sorcery Points to create a magical Shield around yourself or another creature you can see within 30 feet. The ward lasts until you finish a long rest.

This Shield is represented by a number of d6s equal to the number of Sorcery Points spent on it. Whenever the shielded creature takes damage, it can expend any number of the remaining dice from its Shield, roll them, and reduce the damage taken by the total number rolled.

You gain the Sturdy Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your Metamagics Known, and you can't replace it.

You can apply Sturdy Spell without spending Sorcery Points a number of times equal to your Charisma modif- -ier (minimum of once), and you regain all expended uses when you finish a long rest.

You can focus your sorcery to undo the effects of entropy and chaos. As an action, you impose this balance on an adjacent 20-foot cube, affecting it in the ways listed below.

You can use this feature once between each long rest at no cost, but to use this feature again before you finish a long rest you must expend 5 Sorcery Points to do so.

You can unleash your sorcerous power to impose order in the world around you. As a a bonus action, you emit an Aura of Order out to a radius of 30 feet. You concentrate on this Aura as if concentrating on a spell, and it lasts for 1 minute.

Creatures of your choice within this Aura, including you, gain the benefits listed below while this Aura persists:

You can use this feature once between each long rest at no cost, but to use it again you must expend 7 Sorcery Points.

Once in a generation, a divinely chosen ruler is born amongst the people. Some cults and countries seek out these blessed rulers, trusting the gods to select their leader. However, the existence of these chosen Sorcerers can pose a significant threat to those currently in power. While some will willingly step aside to let the will of the gods rule, other less honorable leaders will hunt down these challengers to their power.

As a Royal Sorcerer, you are granted great power, but with that power also comes responsibility. Will you lead the your people to destruction or into a new golden age?

You can lace your words with sorcerous power to uplift your allies. As a bonus action, you can expend Sorcery Points and choose a number of creatures who can see or hear you within 30 feet equal to the Sorcery Points expended. Creatures gain temporary hit points equal to 1d4 + your Charisma modifier.

Your presence inspires heroic confidence in your followers. Creatures of your choice that can see or hear you within 30 feet are considered to be proficient in all saving throws.

Also, the range of Words of Authority becomes 30 feet.

18th-level Royal feature

You have become a legendary figure, and have been infused with increased divine power. You learn divine word. It counts as a Sorcerer spell for you, but it does not count against your total Spells Known, and you cannot replace it.

Once between each long rest, you can cast divine word without expending your Sorcery Points or one of your Innate Arcanum spell slots.

Your sorcery is a thing of shadows, darkness, and fear. Often awakened by a brush with death, or an encounter with a dark entity of the Shadowfell, your umbral power rivals the magic of the most sinister servants of darkness. As your connection to the shadow grows, your visage becomes more lifeless.

You can animate your shadow with dark sorcery. Whenever you cast summon undead, you can replace the spell's normal material component with your shadow, changing the spell in the following ways for the duration of that casting:

Once per long rest, you can cast summon undead in this way at your Spell Limit level, without expending Sorcery Points, after which you expend Sorcery Points as normal.

Your dark power allows you to discorporate and become one with the shadows. When you are in dim light or darkness, you can use a bonus action to teleport to an unoccupied space in area of dim light or darkness you can see within 120 feet.

You can draw out the full power of your shadow magic, if only for a brief time. As a bonus action, you can transform into a creature of pure shadow, granting you the benefits below:

This transformation lasts for 1 minute, but it ends early if you are incapacitated or you use your bonus action to end it. You can use this feature once between each long rest at no cost, but to use it again you must expend 7 Sorcery Points.

You are a Stone Sorcerer, a mortal imbued with a shard of pure elemental earth who can access the powerful magics of rock and stone. Whether this power was given to you by a Dao warlord, the gift of an elder earth elemental, or you are a direct descendant of one of the ancient Dwarven fathers, you now wield the unyielding power of stone. Your magic makes you as rigid and unyielding as the mountains, and can subtly drive you to hoard precious gems and metals of the earth.

6th-level Stone feature

You can attack twice, instead of once, whenever you take the Attack action on your turn. Moreover, when you cast a spell with a casting time of 1 action, you can make a single melee attack, shove, or grapple as a bonus action on that turn.

In addition, your unarmed strikes in Earthen Form count as magical for overcoming resistances and immunities.

You can ward others with elemental earth magic. As a bonus action, you can touch a willing creature and expend Sorcery Points to grant it 1d4 temporary hit points per Sorcery Point.

When a creature with these temporary hit points within 60 feet of you is hit by a melee attack, you can use a reaction to teleport to an unoccupied space within 5 feet of it and make one unarmed strike against its attacker. You and the attacker must be standing on the same surface to use this reaction.

14th-level Stone feature

Your sorcerous magic is as hard as the bedrock of mountains. When creatures have Aegis of Stone temporary hit points, they are resistant to non-magical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage. This benefit also applies to you while you have temporary hit points from your Earthen Form.

Your Earthen Form also becomes permanent unless you end it, and you can use it without spending Sorcery Points.

18th-level Stone feature

Your stalwart stone soul has become an unflinching bulwark of elemental earth. While you are in Earthen Form you are immune to non-magical bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage, and you cannot be moved against your will.

Finally, when you grant a target temporary hit points with Aegis of Stone, you treat the dice as their maximum result.

Within you dwells a mote of pure elemental air, which grants you innate power over both breeze and storm. Whatever the origin of your power, your inner primal storm can drive you from whimsical and calm, to violence with little warning. Do you embrace the winds or do you seek to control the storm?

6th-level Storm feature

Your mere presence bends the weather to your will. As an action, you can alter the weather within a 100-foot radius of you in harmless ways. For example, you could cause rain to stop falling, or change the direction of the wind.

Also, as a bonus action, you can spend Sorcery Points to cause stormy magic to erupt from you, forcing creatures of your choice within 10 feet to make a Dexterity saving throw against your Sorcerer Spell save DC. They take 1d6 lightning or thunder damage (your choice) per Sorcery Point spent on a failed save, and half as much damage on a success.

6th-level Storm feature

The howling tempest within your spirit grants you resistance to both lightning and thunder damage.

You also learn the Piercing Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your Metamagics Known, and you can apply it to your Storm Sorcery Spells at no Sorcery Point cost.

14th-level Storm feature

You bend the wind itself to your will. You gain a flying speed equal to your walking speed and learn the wind walk spell. It is a Sorcerer spell for you, but it doesn't count against your Spells Known, and it can't be replaced with another spell.

18th-level Storm feature

Your stormy soul has become an otherworldly tempest. You gain immunity to both lightning and thunder damage, and the range of both your Eye of the Storm features is tripled.

The dark magic of undeath is a path to great power for those who are willing to pay the price. Many of the most powerful undead creatures will grant their followers a portion of their dark sorcery in return for their service. Evil vampires, long dead mummy lords, and sinister liches have all been known to curse their most loyal followers with sorcerous abilities.

What have you sacrificed to gain this sinister sorcery? Are you sworn in service to a dark lord or a creature of undeath?

You gain resistance to both necrotic and poison damage, and you are immune to the Poisoned condition.

Also, when you have temporary hit points from your Blood Magic feature, you are resistant to bludgeoning, piercing, and slashing damage from non-magical, non-silvered, attacks.

As a reaction to when you are reduced to 0 hit points, but not killed outright, you can turn into a cloud of mist, reappearing with 1 hit point in an unoccupied space within 30 feet.

Once you use this reaction you must finish a short or long rest before you can use it again. When you have no uses left, you can spend 5 Sorcery Points to use this reaction again.

You have mastered the sinister power of your Sorcery. When you deal necrotic damage to a creature with a Sorcerer spell of 1st-level or higher, you can gain temporary hit points equal to half the necrotic damage dealt.

These temporary hit points can also be used for your Blood Magic Spellcasting in place of your current hit points.

There are many reclusive sages who learn to wield the magic of nature, but a rare few are born with an innate connection to that magic. Known as Verdants, these wild sorcerers are able to magically manipulate plants, and can even sprout vines from their flesh in order to move about the world. How did you come to bear this primal power? Were you chosen by an ancient forest to serve as its guardian, or are you the child of an ancient prophecy, raised from birth by a Druidic Circle?

The range of your thorn whip and Overgrowth vines increase to 30 feet, and the damage dice of thorn whip become d10s.

Also, you can use a bonus action to extrude an Overgrowth vine and force a creature in range to make a Strength saving throw. On a failure, it is grappled and rooted to the ground in place by the vine. The creature can escape with a successful Strength (Athletics) check against your Spell save DC.

Your growths drain the life-force of your foes. At the start of each of your turns, any creatures grappled or restrained by any Verdant Sorcery features or Verdant Sorcery Spells take 1d10 necrotic damage. You then gain temporary hit points equal to the total necrotic damage dealt to all creatures.

As a bonus action, you can enter the Greensong, a state of pure harmony with the natural world. For 1 minute, or until you are incapacitated, you gain the benefits listed below:

Once you enter the Greensong you must finish a short or long rest before you can do so again. When you have no uses, you can spend 5 Sorcery Points to use this feature again.

Your innate magic comes from the wild forces of chaos that underlie the order of creation. You might have endured exposure to some form of raw magic, perhaps through a planar portal leading to Limbo, the Elemental Planes, or the mysterious Far Realm. Perhaps you were blessed by a powerful fey creature or marked by a demon. Or your magic could be a fluke of your birth, with no apparent cause or reason. However it came to be, this chaotic magic churns within you, waiting for any outlet.

Your unpredictable magic allows you to bend luck for others, for good or ill. When another creature you can see within 30 feet makes an ability check, attack roll, or saving throw, you can use your reaction to expend the use of Tides of Chaos to roll a 1d4 and apply it as either a bonus or penalty to its roll.

If you do not have the use of your Tides of Chaos you can expend 2 Sorcery Points to use this feature.

You learn the Unstable Spell Metamagic. It does not count against your number of Metamagics Known and it cannot be replaced. For you, it only costs 1 Sorcery Point to use.

As your wild power has grown, so has your ability to direct its effects. Whenever you roll on the Wild Magic Surge table you can roll twice and choose which effect takes place.

Your Sorcery taps into the unbridled power that permeates the multiverse. When you roll damage for a spell and roll the highest possible result on any of the damage dice, you roll that die again, and add its result to the total damage roll, continuing until you don't roll the highest possible result on that die.
