The scroll will malfunction however the DM sees fit to be amusing if the check is failed.

     * This is to give new spellcasters a chance to just get used to using spells for fun.
   * [[Jack]] gave the party **3 Magic Beans**. Each bean is capable of growing a giant beanstalk. This does not however assure that all beanstalks arrive at the same location such as [[Mustardia]] as the first bean did due to the nature of cloud island drifting.((2 Magic Beans remain in game in The Party's possession as of Feb 17, 2026.))
+    * [[Elvinara]] gave the party 1 additional magic bean, which they have yet to use.((At game session on May 5, 2026.))
   * Each HEX on our tabletop mat is 1 inch wide. So the ultimate judge of distance would be to take a ruler and measure inches in a straight line from point A to point B, instead of trying to judge the hex count if needed for really precise moments.
   * [[Chaos Initiative Rules]] - alt way to do initiative for rounds.
