when the dice betray you
A 5e critical hit table worth describing
Player crits with multipliers up top and body-part effects below, so a 20 is a story instead of double dice.

Doubling the damage dice is a rule, not a moment. This table gives the crit a shape: a multiplier band at the top of the roll, and specific consequences below it.
It reads as a single d100 range table, so the whole thing is on screen and a player can see how close they came to something worse.
- One d100 range table, all of it visible
- Multiplier results and body-location effects
- Named tiers, so you can see the spread
- History, mute and copy, like every other table here
