Just thought I would start off the spells listing with a simple one. Not sure about the amount of MP for the create ice as the ice is fairly thin but spread out.

Icy Floor
Spell Lists: Create Ice 0/ Gen 5
Total MP: 5
Range: Short (30')
Duration: 10 min.
Area: 30' Radius
Effect: This spell creates a thin mist at ankle height that spreads out to the edge of the area of effect which then soon clears. Left behind is a thin layer of ice that slow movement and makes balance and tumble difficult. See DMG for details of icy surfaces.
Costs: Thin ice 0, Range 1, Area 3, Duration 1

Some Spells

These should look familiar, since I am trying to convert some core spells from the PHB.

Acid Arrow
Evoke Acid 1/Gen 2
Total MP: 3
Range: Medium (150 ft.)
Duration: Instantaneous
A magical arrow of acid springs from your hand and speeds to its target. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to hit your target. The arrow deals 2d6 points of acid damage when it strikes the target.
Costs: 2 MP medium range, 1 MP extra 1d6 of damage.

Acid Fog
Create Mist 1/Evoke Acid 5/Move Death 3/Gen 4
Total MP: 13
Range: Medium (150 ft)
Area: Fog spreads in 20-ft. radius, 20 ft. high
Duration: 10 rounds
Saving Throw: Reflex Half/Will Partial
Acid fog creates a billowing mass of misty vapors. In addition to slowing creatures down and obscuring sight, this spell’s vapors are highly acidic. Each round after the first on your turn, those within the area of effect make a Reflex save for half damage or take 1d6 damage. On the first round, damage is 2d6, with a Reflex save allowing them to take half. Creatures must make a will save or have their base speed reduced by 45 ft, to a minimum of 10 ft. In addition, the Mist obscures vision beyond 5 ft. A creature within 5 ft. has concealment (20% miss chance). The Fog and mist can be dispersed by a moderate wind (11+ mph) in 4 rounds, or by a strong wind (21+ mph) in 1 round, but the damage and slow effects continue for the entire duration.
Costs: 2 MP medium range, 2 MP 20 ft. radius, 4 MP enduring damage, 1 MP +1d6 acid for first round, 3 MP reduce speed by 45 ft., 1 MP create mist

Acid Splash
Evoke Acid 0/Gen 1
Total MP: 1
Range: Short (30 ft.)
Duration: 1 round
Saving Throw: None
You fire a small orb of acid at the target. You must succeed on a ranged touch attack to hit your target. The orb deals 1d6 points of acid damage.
Cost: 1 MP short range

Aid
Charm Humanoid 1/Infuse Nature 2/Gen 1
Total MP: 4
Range: Touch
Duration: 10 minutes
Savings Throw: none
Aid grants the target a morale bonus of +1 on attack rolls and generates a weak calm effect versus fear, plus 7 temporary hit points.
Cost: 1 MP Brave effect +1 attack & weak calm effect vs. fear spells, 2 MP +7 hit points, 1 MP short duration

Kavik:

Just a short question: How do you convert the SRD spells? Do you convert the spell level in MP and try then to stuff out the spell with minimal losses? Or do try to find an at least as powerful variant? Looking at your examples it seems to be the former.

Oh, and Aid has two "Total MP"-entries.

The Former

Actually, I didn't convert the spell levels to MP costs. I simply read the spell effect and then attempted to mimic it at the lowest possible level.

My own stuff also has another line which gives the scale. So, for Acid Splash and Acid Arrow, it reads:

Scalable: For each additional MP spent, increase damage by 1d6

And for Acid Fog, it reads:

Scalable: For each additional 4 MP spent, increase damage by 1d6 over duration

Basically, regardless of damage, it is still the same spell. If you change some other variable it becomes a different spell, at least in my opinion.

And thanks for pointing out the Typo.
