The Complete Illusionist: Work-in-Progress Spell List

Work on my next big project, The Complete Illusionist (which popped out of nowhere, quite unexpectedly), has been progressing rather well. I'm still in the stage of collating a lot of ideas for spells of different levels and trying to build up the spell lists. Adding to the base illusionist class in the Labyrinth Lord AEC, I've been doing OGL write-ups of the illusionist spells from AD&D Unearthed Arcana. I also have quite a number of interesting submissions from other people now, following my recent call out. All in all, it's looking like I should have a very nicely rounded out spell list in the final book.

Just out of interest, here are the lists so far. These only include spells which I actually have a full write-up of. I have lots more to write up and put in place. I also need to read through many of the submissions still and decide which fit.

    You included Simulacrum, the only MU spell that I always thought was missing from the illusionist's list. And nice to see some of the Tomes from the original T&T make it.

    Are you using the LL write ups for the Creation spells or did you expand upon them 2e style? The former allow for a lot of weasling, I should know :)

      Yep, all the illusionist spells I've written over the years are included, e.g. the old tomes.

      That's interesting what you say about the creation spells. I'll have to check out the 2e versions.

    The Secrets of the Shadowend blog had a release on Illusionists, but it was for the S&W rules. I assume you have it for reference...

    I really can't wait to see this come to fruition for sure!! I have a couple of comments.

    I think level 6 spells is looking a little light. I could see some more of Nathan's spells in there (are there any OSRIC ones that aren't in here?

    Also, I think the name Menioth may fall under the Proper Names section in the front of Nathan's book concerning "Declaration of Open Game Content".

      Hi Robert, the book is still in the works. I'm hoping to have it finished around the latter part of this year, but I don't want to hurry it.

      Oh that's interesting about the name Menioth. I'll check that. Thanks for pointing that out!

      Re: the spell lists posted above, yes, as I said this is purely the spells that I currently have selected. There are many more to come :)
