Inferno

An uncontrollable power surges through you. You walk a fine line between control and chaos and should you cross it, the effects can be disastrous. Possibly some past event has left you mentally scarred due to your dealings with the power within you. perhaps you wish to be rid of your power or have a fear of it. Whatever it may be, your lack of control has lead to deadly consequences.

When you choose this feat, choose one of Fire, Lightning , Cold or Thunder. Whenever you cast a spell that deals damage of the chosen type, make a Wisdom saving throw equal to 10 + the level of the spell. On a fail, you must roll on the Mental Effects table to determine your actions and are unable to cast spells until you finish a long rest. On a success, you do not roll of the table but are still unable to cast spells that deal the chosen damage type until you finish a long rest. You immediately fail the Wisdom save if you trigger a magic surge.

Additionally on a fail, the following effects occur.

• if the spell was a single target spell of at least 1st level, every creature within a 5 * spell level foot circle centered on the target must make a Dexterity saving throw or take damage equal to half the damage dealt to the target, taking no damage on a success.
• If the spell could target multiple enemies with a spell attack, it becomes a single target spell.
• If the spell has a size and requires creatures to make a Dexterity or Constitution Saving throw, they do so at disadvantage.
• When you roll the maximum number on a damage dice of the chosen type, you can "explode" it. When you explode a dice, you roll another of that dice and add it to your total. This can lead to "explosion chains" where dice continue to roll max and explode further. However, there is a maximum amount of times you can explode per turn, equal to your charisma modifier.
• The range of area of effect spells is doubled, but creatures outside the original range take half damage and make their save without disadvantage, taking no damage on a success.
• You trigger a critical hit on a 19 and 20.
