Wizard Inducement
The standard rules for the Wizard inducement found on page 70 in CRP (pdf page 44) apply in the Solstice Slam, with the following exceptions:
1. All teams automatically include a CRP Wizard / Sports-Hireling Wizard on their roster
2. Coaches do not have to pay 150,000 for the Wizard
3. The Solstice Slam is sponsored by the Celestial College of Magic, the originators of the Lightning Bolt spell. For the event, the spell has been upgraded to the Chain Lightning Bolt variation. Cast the spell as normal, but on the 1D6 roll, a 6 means the Lightning Bolt will strike another player on the opponent’s team after the first strike is resolved. Roll 1D8 and use the scatter table to determine the next player struck. Select the closest player in the relative direction of the scatter. Roll the 1D6 again to see if the Lightning Bolt continues to ricochet to new victims.
4. In addition to Fireball and Lightning Bolt spells, the Wizard can also cast "Zap!" from Spike Magazine #1 (p. 32)
