    My favorite magic item I ever got was Ring of the Grammarian. Change one letter of a spell…

    Me: “Incestation” Dm: “hello, step brother.”

      “Tireball”

      A massive, industrial strength ring of treaded galvanized rubber smothers the target area, and ricochets with lethal effect.

      “Bay of Frost”

      An unearthly howl that chills the blood of all in range, literally

      “Hole Person”

      Transform target into the z-axis mirror opposite of their form: a perfect replica of their volume in the surface they were in contact with at the moment of casting.

      Etc.

        One of my wizards specialized in wild magic. I routinely used fireball to produce massive explosions of flower petals, and magical fireworks for celebrations.

        “Beacon of Cope”

        Allies in the radius are immune to fear and charm due to an aura of self-deception. Deception and persuasion checks automatically succeed against affected targets if they would cause the target to feel less doubt about their choices.

      i gave my players a “tome of mis-spells” that, when spells are cast through it, i get to misspell them, i.e. “mage hand” --> “rage band”, this is a similar idea
