Critical Failure Charts
Do you like silly lists? I do! I've been DMing for several years now (almost a decade). I adore messing with my players¸ usually in a humourous way with no PC deaths¸ so I made a list of 100 random things that could have happened when a player Fumbles (Rolls a 1 during combat). Things like: You trip over an imaginary dead turtle. or You are distracted by a parade of clowns. or You knock over a bookcase¸ all librarians now hate you and will attack on site. or The pc becomes aware of a conspiracy around the number 15. Whenever a 15 is rolled for any reason the player should Roll percentiles: 1-50 x happens¸ 51-100 y happens. This list should be suitable for most D20 games. I hope you enjoy this as much as I do.
