[QUOTE="Ilbranteloth, post: 7031647, member: 6778044"] Here's the Counterspell portion. It's an opposed check (d20 + spell attack modifier + level of the spell/counterspell. The idea is to allow the sort of magical battles a la Harry Potter or other movies/books/etc.: The caster of the original spell checks on the Counterspell table: Difference Effect -5 or less The counterspell succeeds and the original spell is canceled (and the spell slot is lost). -4 Roll on the Wild Magic Surge table. -3 to +3 Contest continues. You must maintain concentration, cannot take other actions or reactions, and must make another opposed check next round. +4 Roll on the Wild Magic Surge table. +5 or more The counterspell fails, and the original spell is cast as normal. The caster of the original spell rolls on the Wild Magic Surge table if appropriate, and applies the +/-4 modifier to the roll. If the result on the Wild Magic Surge table is a backfire, it affects whichever caster has the upper hand in the contest. [/QUOTE]
