Well, my spell sorter seemed to go over well, so here we are again. This time it's the beasties of the Monster Manual. Sort or filter by name, CR, type, subtype (if any), size, alignment (if any), and by whether or not it's got Legendary and/or Lair actions.

As with the last one, let me know if you catch any errors, please. Enjoy.

Thanks! I used this to look at the options for the Conjure X spells.

• Conjure Animals: lots of Beast options at the relevant CRs (1/4, 1/2, 1, 2)
• Conjure Celestial: could be renamed to "Conjure Couatl or Pegasus". If you cast it as a 9th-level spell, you can conjure a (legendary) Unicorn.
• Conjure Elemental: lots of elementals at CR5 plus a couple more options at CR6 if you bump it up.
• Conjure Fey: there are no Fey above CR3, so if you want to make use of the CR6 limit you'll have to pick a Beast (specifically a Mammoth).
• Conjure Minor Elementals: not as many options as Conjure Animals, but still a decent selection at the relevant CRs.

I'm a bit disappointed that Conjure Fey is essentially the big version of Conjure Animals rather than having interesting Fey options (for its level), and Conjure Celestial has very few choices. The others have a good selection, though.

For the sake of Conjure Fey, it's a shame that the Night Hag is a Fiend rather than Fey.

Hey. You're awesome.

Can I make one request? Page numbers. For this one and the spell one. Also noting which spells are bonus actions (or just a general "casting time" column).

Okay, that was like 3 requests. I can do these if you don't want to.

Thanks! This is fantastically useful.

One suggestion: consider converting the fractions in the CR column to decimal numbers. As fractions, they don't sort.
