Paithan's Fiasco
(Enchantment/Charm, Alteration, Wild Magic)

Range:  10 yards
Components:  V, S, M
Duration:  1 round per level
Casting Time:  1 round
Area of Effect:  One creature
Saving Throw:  Special

This potent spell is an improved version of both unluck and bestow curse. It shifts the probability patterns into a dramatically negative pattern, causing bad results even when they would be highly improbable. The target of the spell gets one saving throw to negate the spell entirely. If the saving throw fails, the affected creature acts at -4 for the duration of the spell. This applies to everything: attack rolls, damage rolls, saving throws, proficiency checks, Armour Class, etc. The spell is cumulative with unluck and bestow curse.
Furthermore, the target must save every round for the duration of the spell or a fiasco will occur. If this happens, the target suffers horribly bad luck. The DM must judge what the absolute worst thing that could happen to the character that round is, and apply it. If the target fails a saving throw, he may suffer maximum damage possible. If he is in melee, his weapon may break. If he is casting a spell, it may backfire and affect him. Whatever the effect, it is drastically bad. At the very least, the target should slip and fall prone in front of his enemies.
Every time a fiasco occurs, there is a 10% cumulative chance that the spell breaks (if this happens, all fiasco and unluck spells affecting the target also break). In any case, when the spell ends, there is a 50% chance that the target will be affected by the reverse effect of unluck in the next round, as he "rebounds" from his stretch of bad luck.
The potency of this spell carries a risk with it. When cast, if the caster's Wild Magic Level Variation roll is below 4, a backfire occurs as follows:

	D20 Roll	Effect
	1	Caster affected by both Paithan's fiasco and unluck
	2	Only caster affected
	3	Caster and target affected
	4+	Spell functions as normal

The material component of this spell is a bit of fur from a black cat.
