Introduction
Like many other people who are enjoying D&D5e, I WANT MOAR SPELLS NOW!!11!, so I
decided to convert them. I first looked through some 3.x edition spells (no, I never got into 4e)
but then decided, the hell with it. I went to my bookshelf and grabbed all four volumes of the
Wizard’s Spell Compendium and the three volumes of the Priest’s Spell Compendium, all from
AD&D Second Edition, which have been sitting there gathering dust for nearly two decades. I
figured that I might as well get some use out of them, and anyway, everyone else is going to
convert things from later editions, and 5e has kinda the same sort of feel 2e. And then I got to
work.
I have obviously not converted every spell in those books. There were a lot of spells that were
basically duplicates of each other (how many spells that turn your arms into snakes does any
one system really need?), a lot of spells that were very campaign-specific (no Spelljammer = no
need for spells that affect the phlogiston) or involved mechanics that are no longer used (such
as spells that are now metamagic, or how enchantment spells were originally used to, well,
enchant items), and a lot of spells that were, quite frankly, pretty stupid (do you really need a
spell that makes a friendly animal sleepy?). I just picked the ones I liked. My tastes are all over
the place, so hopefully there’s a spell for every purpose.
Many of these spells have been changed a bit from their original state. I felt that many of them
were too powerful, or not nearly powerful enough for their level (for instance, there were
some spells listed as 3rd, 4th, even 5th level that in 5e would be just a 1st-level spell now—and
vice versa), did weird things that weren’t necessary and just made the spell unnecessarily
complicated, or could be better expressed as a variant of another spell; others spells simply
needed to be altered to work well in 5e.
Many thanks to all you lovely folks at /r/rdndnext for corrections and suggestions.
