RANDOM SPELL SELECTION
There are two spells in the Tzeentch Spell Book that give the
spellcaster access to randomly selected spells. There are two ways to handle this, and the
GM determines which method will be used:
Color List Selection
This is the complicated method. The Sorcerer of Tzeentch may choose any one Color College. Roll 1d12 to randomly determine a spell to select from the spell book of that College. To determine which spell has been selected, pretend that the spells are all numbered, starting at "1" for the upper-most / left-most spell, and then increasing as you go straight down. For most spell lists, this would be entries 1 through 5. For entries 6 through 10, use the right-most column, starting at the top again. For occurrences of 11 or 12 (or in any case where the number is higher than the total number of spells available for that College), roll again.
Please note that this is not conducive to quick pick-up games, such as at conventions, if you're letting players use the Tzeentch Spell Book. It encourages the player to rifle through the list of spell books, and furthermore requires that you have copies of all of them handy.
Chart Selection
This is the easier method, provided that you have this chart handy. Roll 1d12 and consult the following chart.
