This item is a five-inch diameter crystal ball within which can be seen the image of a harengon wizard with his cape fluttering dynamically. It once contained the consciousness of Anorak—who was a weakened, amnesiac alter ego of the trickster god, Jack Lope. While Anorak’s consciousness has since gone dormant, something of his power and personality remain within this item.
As a Bonus Action, the bearer of this crystal ball can summon the power of a Wild Magic Surge by saying “Anorak, do something useful.” while holding it in their hand. When activated, roll a d20. If the result of this roll is a natural 20, choose a spell from the table on PH pages 150-51. However, if any other number is the result of the d20 roll, the user must make a separate d100 roll and refer to the same table to determine its effects. Any resultant spell is cast by the form of Anorak from within the orb. Regardless of the desirability of the spell’s outcome, Anorak can be heard saying “You’re welcome.” from within the crystal ball.
Once the spell is cast, the image of Anorak within switches from his dynamic form to one in which he is lounging around a camp fire at night. The crystal ball’s single charge of Wild Magic Surge replenishes after 1d4+1 dawns (determined immediately after each use). After the number of randomly determined dawns has passed, the image of Anorak returns to its dynamic pose.
