Spell Lists

Choose a class spell list

Find your class below, then choose the rules edition on its spell list. The class directories do not all have the same edition coverage yet; if a list has no edition label, check the individual spell’s rules tab and your class rules before using it in play.

Legacy spell-list notation

The following terminology describes older d20 spell references, including D&D 3.5e-style notation. It does not replace the rules for D&D 2024 or another edition.

An M or F at the end of a legacy spell-list name marks a special material or focus component; X marks an XP cost paid by the caster.

Order of Presentation

In the spell lists and the spell descriptions that follow them, the spells are presented in alphabetical order by name except for those belonging to certain spell chains.

When a spell’s name begins with “lesser,” “greater,” or “mass,” the spell description is alphabetized under the second word of the spell name instead.

Hit Dice

The term “Hit Dice” is used synonymously with “character levels” for effects that affect a number of Hit Dice of creatures. Creatures with Hit Dice only from their race, not from classes, have character levels equal to their Hit Dice.

Caster Level

A spell’s power often depends on caster level, which is defined as the caster’s class level for the purpose of casting a particular spell. A creature with no classes has a caster level equal to its Hit Dice unless otherwise specified. The word “level” in the spell lists that follow always refers to caster level.

Creatures and Characters

The words “creature” and “character” are used synonymously in the spell descriptions.
