- Spellmaking is equal to Skill+Magic:Sorcery
- Every morning draw scrabble tiles equal to Spellmaking
- To cast a spell, form the spell name
- Discard a tile to cause it to become "wild", standing in for any letter.
- May test Luck to re-draw tiles. E.g. Discard 4, draw 4.
If you don't own a scrabble set use this table. Roll once per point of Spellmaking (Skill+Sorcery). Produces similar effects, less fun.
