What does your magic look like?
What does it look like when you cast magic? Some TTRPGs define the details of magic's appearance and effects in detail, but others leave it up to players, facilitators, and game masters to decide on those aspects themselves. This set of random tables can help you brainstorm and generate different ways that magic might manifest in a game or story. Feel free to use them with any TTRPG that includes magic in some form, or perhaps even as a tool for worldbuilding or solo fantasy writing!
