This spell is nearly identical to the 1st-level wild magic spell Nahal's reckless dweomer, except that it creates multiple effects. Before casting this spell, the mage announces the spell effect the orbs are trying to create, the mage must be able to cast the spell (i.e., have it in his spellbooks), but need not have it memorized.
After announcing the spell (along with the spells target and all other conditions required by the spell) the mage releases 1 semi-spherical chaotic orb for every five levels of the caster (including his level variation). Each orb functions as a separate Nahal's reckless dweomer spell and the mage adds his level to the rolls on Table 2 in the Tome of Magic to find the effect of each orb.
For example, Jordon (WM24) chooses to create fireballs, and rolls an 18 for his level variation roll, allowing him to create four chaotic orbs (adding 24% to each orb's roll on Table 2 in the Tome of Magic). Jordon rolls (including the above percentage) 72, 100, 100, and 44 for the orbs effects. The orbs have the following effects on their victims: The first orb turns its victim to stone (as flesh to stone), the second and third orbs both blossom into 40-foot diameter fireballs, each causing 20d6 points of damage, and the last orb creates the effects of dancing lights around its target.
Notes: Restricted to Wild mages; taught only by the Wild mage Jordon "Piper" Silverblade, the mysterious Chosen of Mystra from the FORGOTTEN REALMS setting.
