Wizardharry chords are essentially tempered chords tempered by the wizardharry comma, 4000/3993.

The wizardharry temperament has a seven-tone scale which consists of a chain of six submajor seconds, of size approximately 11/10, and a whole tone of size approximately 9/8, which closes at the octave since the wizardharry comma is tempered out. It contains two triads, four tetrads and two pentads as 33-odd-limit essentially tempered chords.
