Drinking from Pools

When you drink from a pool there is a roll for 52 possible effects. The first two effects listed (pool dries up and writhing with snakes) are much more common than the rest of the effects and have a 8/52 and 5/52 chance, respectively. The other effects (the 'Number' column) each have a 1/52 chance.
For the vast majority of the intrinsics, you lose them if you have them and gain them if you don't. This makes pools much nicer for characters without many intrinsics already.
You have a 1/104 chance to receive a wish (as long as you're not doomed).
The pool inside the Stone Circle always corrupts you by 10d100 in addition to the normal effect.
