Code:
obj
    cfb
        icon='ICONS.dmi'
        icon_state="CFB"
        name="Chocolate Frog Box"
        verb/Open()
            pick()
                prob(10)
                    var/obj/T=new/obj/WC(usr)
                    T.name="Morganna"
                    usr<<"You open the box and find the Morganna card!"
                prob(20)
                    var/obj/T=new/obj/WC(usr)
                    T.name="Dumbledore"
                    usr<<"You open the box and find the Dumbledore card!"


Problem description:I don't know how to make this work randomly. It says proc definition not allowed inside another proc every time I compile it.

You can't use pick() for code blocks. If you look in the DM reference(F1 in Dream Maker), pick() returns a value. If you look for prob() in the reference, it tells you that it also returns a value.
What you want is for certain events to act different. In your case, you can have it like so:
var/obj/WC/T = new(usr)
T.name = pick(10;"Morganna", 20;"Dumbledore") // Who knows what will happen with the other 70% chance..?
usr << "You open the box and find the [name] card!"
