In 'wild zones', wild magic rules and a caster level check is needed to cast any spell correctly without something going wrong. The PCs are in a wild zone.Wizard at top of stairs. Dwarf at top of stairs. Evil cleric at bottom of stairs.Cleric casts hold person. Dwarf fails save. Wizard casts dispel magic. Fails caster check. Dispels himself. Unable to cast any spells for 24 hours. Player curses; other players laugh heartily.Cleric casts spiritual weapon, begins attacking wizard. Wizard can't attack back. Wizard has no ranged weapon. Wizard can't cast.Wizard picks up dwarf and hurls down stairs. Wizard rolls natural 20 on attack roll, despite almost total lack of skill and complete lack of rules for dwarf bowling. Dwarf hits cleric, knocks cleric over, does 10 points of damage. Wizard slides down bannister, punches cleric in face, pins cleric until other fighter arrives to finish him off.Wizard gained a level's worth of XP just for making us laugh so hard.</blockquote>
