Roll the Dice

1	Overload Surge: The energy channeled surges uncontrollably, causing a feedback loop. The Paladin takes 1d6 radiant (or appropriate energy type) damage and is stunned for 1 round.
2	Misdirected Burst: The energy release is misdirected. Instead of the intended target, a random adjacent ally or object is hit by the smite, taking the intended damage.
3	Energy Drain: The EAR drains more energy than intended. Expends an additional spell slot (or equivalent resource) without additional benefits.
4	System Glitch: The EAR momentarily glitches, causing the Paladin's next attack to be made with disadvantage.
5	Temporary Shutdown: The energy channeled overloads the EAR's circuits, preventing the use of Divine Smite for the next 10 minutes.
6	Harmonized Channeling: The Paladin finds a perfect harmony with the EAR. The energy cost of the Divine Smite is halved for this use (round up if necessary).
7	Reverberating Power: The channeled energy reverberates with additional force. The next time the Paladin uses Divine Smite within 1 hour, they add an additional 1d8 to the damage.
8	Inefficient Release: The energy is released inefficiently, dealing half the intended damage to the target.
9	Delayed Reaction: The channeled energy takes a moment to activate. The additional damage from the Divine Smite is delayed until the start of the Paladin's next turn.
10	Synchronized Resonance: The EAR and the Paladin's weapon achieve perfect resonance.
