Level Up (A5E) Spellcrafting examples from your campaign

[Verall]

Hi guys,
There are a few players in my campaign (myself included) looking to dive into spellcrafting.
I’ve familiarised myself with the rules but I’d be very keen to see some community examples of spells crafted and the formulas you used to make them!

The only spellcrafting so far was my Artificer "supercharging" his produce flame cantrip to the rare one in the AG (after meeting way too many enemies immune to fire) but I need to check how one of my oldest own inventions (from back in AD&D 2nd times where Specialists get new spells every new spell level) would be feasible in A5E...

Alistanathalabivetith's Devious Inconspiciousness
(Can't believe I still know the name/spell by heart even though it's been more than two dozen years since I used it)

That spell was a modified (and "upgraded") change self that lasted for a day (or until "Al" casted another spell that could be put on someone else who then looked completely "normal" so nobody would think of this person to be someone "foreign".

The main use was to be able to enter cities with a charmed lizardman "friend" (that Al couldn't really speak to and who usually was too dumb to understand others).

Nice, did you get much mileage out of the improved cantrip?

As luck has it we haven't met any fire immune enemies after I got the cantrip but we play for about 3-4 hours every two weeks (and sometimes -like today- sessions are cancelled due to a lack of people) but it's always nice to have it as a backup (and as an additional cantrip to boot) and I'm sure my Artificer will find some other ways to use it even though he used to be alchemy flavored but recently got the Archivist archetype, turning this kobold into a real bookwyrm (albeit a small one)

Nice, yeah I play A5E about as often, what level are you?

We just reached level 6 (and after some setup scenes it looks like the campaign might start "for real"... At least everything is starting to go down really fast)

We’ve just hit level 8 in my campaign, I’m about to have my first crack at spell crafting, going to try for the rare version of find steed in gpg 30
