Order of the D30 – Nevets’ Tri-Phase Cognitive Alignment Pebble™ – Practical Joke Table

In my regular Tuesday game, Nevets and his Shoppe showed up. The DM stated that Nevets bequeathed a rock to both my Ranger and our healer. Far be it from me to let something so RIPE with possibilities lay loose, dormant, and otherwise a throwaway line.

When it is rubbed by its owner three times, the Rock immediately activates, then using the current situation (Battle, Chaos, Diplomatic, Tavern, Camping, or Travel), the DM determines what kind of chaos ensues.

    Then reroll twice and both effects occur.
