Re: Different critical spell failure tables
Luck doesn't affect spell crit fails.

That's not entirely correct. Luck doesn't affect ceremonial casting rolls (M12) but it can affect regular spell rolls. Of course, if a GM wishes for Magic to feel more chaotic and risky he can forbid Luck from affecting any spellcasting, but it's not the default assumption. |

The GM can always say "I'm making up your critical spell failure, as per Basic Set." Very hard to "reroll" that.

It has to happen a second time, within a the most a couple of hundred years, to a different wizard who was also seemingly nice and thoughtful and well-adjusted. |

Re: Different critical spell failure tables
Remember that fantasy worlds are as vulnerable to urban legends as modern society - probably more so. So everyone could "know" that spells that go wrong summon demons without there being the slightest truth to it.
