Wild Magic card

Version 0.21: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

The card depicts a pointy wizard's hat, scorched and resting on a pile of ashes.

Drawing the Wild Magic card affects all enemies in your line of sight, hitting them with random miscast effects, and restores your MP slightly for each enemy affected. The higher the power of the card, the more powerful the miscast effect. If there are no enemies in sight, nothing happens.

The miscast effects have the potential to be explosions which can also hit the player - therefore you should be careful drawing from destruction decks at low HP.

The Wild Magic card could be found in the following decks over the past several versions.
