+====== Miscast ======
+[[:Game Mechanics:Miscast#Miscast|Miscasting]] is a mechanics. It is the loss of control of the astral winds and the resulting magical backlash.\\
-A Miscast occurs when:
-  * Failing an [[Rituals and Invocations#Invocations|Invocation]] by rolling a Natural 1 on one of their Checks.
-  * Not having the required mana to cast an Invocation when it resolves.
-  * Using [[:Base_Actions#Mystic Actions| Wild Magic]] and failing as specified by the ability or the GM.
-Miscasting causes the failure of the Invocation or Action being attempted and additionally causes the player to roll on the Miscast Table\\
