Re: wands
To be honest I let anyone attempt to use a wand IF they know the command word and think they have the stones to bend magic to their will.
I just can never get anyone else to give it a shot after the last guy tried it and turned inside out and then blew up showering the rest of the party with small bloody pc shrapnel. Well,he did roll a one and mispronounced Caphokinhamqeun.

Re: wands
If the wand requires a spell check, non-Wizards and non-Elves roll 1d10.
Some wands, though, might just give a bonus to spell checks. Or do something else entirely.

Re: wands
Case by case basis, but the one I allowed a non-spellcaster to use, he has to roll a d10 and suffers minor corruption if he rolls a 1.
