Message: <blockquote data-quote="Dark Mistress" data-source="post: 5342633" data-attributes="member: 11816">101 5th level spells by Rite PublishingThis product is 32 pages long.  It starts with a cover and ToC. (2 pages)Next it gets to the spell lists. At this point the number of classes shrink, since Paladins and Rangers don't have 5th level spells. Below is a list of classes and number of spells they get, Wiz/Sorc also broken up by school. (3 pages)Bards – 23Cleric – 29Druid – 19Wiz/Sorc -Abjuration – 6Conjuration – 6Divination - 7Enchantment - 8Evocation – 16Illusion - 6Necromancy - 12Transmutation - 11Universal – 2The next section is of the spells. Below is a few spells that stood out to me.(24 pages)Befoul Spring – makes a small water source polluted.Blood Sap – causes dmg and slows them, but also gives them natural armor and protects vs crits and SA.Bone Chill – Creates a cloud of negative cold energy, those inside take cold dmg and are staggered unless save is made. I would have liked if this also had a cloud effect on vision, it doesn't say anything about effecting vision so I assume it doesn't, but I think it should.Brimstone Storm – causes a storm of falling brimstone, cause fire/bludgeoning dmg, slowing land movement and obscuring sight.Carpet of Fire – Makes a area where the ground is on fire.Circle of Moonlight – Makes a circle of protection vs undead and were creatures.Cloak of Gloom – Either cast on self or as a wall. Causes a miss chance and can cause shaken effect.Cure Far Wounds – heals at a range like any healing spell 3rd or lower.Environmental Prison – You trap a target in a cocoon made from natural environment, making them hidden. Once per day you can communicate with them. While in the cocoon they don't age.Eternal Charm – Permanent charm, that makes them friendly to you.Glimpse of the Reaper – Target see's their own dark fate, become cowered.Kiss of the Nereid – Create a watery neried that kisses the target and then plunges down into their lungs to begin to drown them. I love this spell.Sacrifice Mortal – Gain hp and AC from killing a sentient being. Cool spell but I thought the duration should have been longer.Vampiric Drain – Does dmg to target and gives the caster temp hp.Weight of Ages – Causes the target to age suddenly.There was a few spells I didn't care for.Fell Tree – You make a tree fall over very fast, causing dmg and can pin targets under it.(This spell just seems so limited in use, that I just can't see anyone taking it.)It finishes with a OGL and 2 pages of ads (3 pages)Closing thoughts. First I did say there was a few spells I didn't care for but only listed one. The reason for that is simple. The rest of the spells I didn't care for was fine, but where spells I just see most people rarely if ever taking. Just like some spells in the core book. There was nothing wrong with them just they was meh. Also there was more spells I liked, in fact I liked the majority of them. So I only listed the ones I really liked.The art work was mostly very good, though there was a couple that was in odd places. Like the artwork for Glimpse the Reaper is near the beginning no where near the spell. Not a big deal but I thought odd, yes the art near it is for another spell near it. I also noticed a couple of small errors mostly minor things like minor spelling or in one case obviously a C&P error. On two spells Phantasmal Lich and Nymph have the same disbelieve effects and the Nymph one listed Lich. I contact Rite Publishing about it and they said they will be fixing it and reup loading the file in the near future.This might be their best one since their 1st level book of the series. I can honestly say I was impressed I liked so many of these spells at 5th level. I expected the series to slowly but steadily get worse but that’s not the case. Really other than a few spells that are meh and a few minor errors I couldn't find any real faults in this book, with only one spell I had real issues with. So in that case I am going to give this one a 5 star. One of the best in the series so far.</blockquote>
