I have a quick question. Does anyone remember what the named spells were in the players hand book? Ie Tenser’s floating disc, etc?

How about the named magical items?

Thanks

(Tenser's)

Tranformation
Floating disk

(Evard's)
Black tentacles

(Bigby's)
The hand spells (grasping hand, etc)

(Mordenkainen's)
disjunction
faithfull hound

I know the names are not open source and that's why they were dropped and not even listed under those names in the D20 SRD.

As far as magic items... Except for the major artifacts like the Vecna/Kas stuff I can't think of any right now.

I have a hard time breaking myself of the habit of opening the spell list to the name I am use to for it and as such they are always the hard ones for me to find.

Some of the replacement names for the Forgotten Realms spells were criminally boring and sad compared to the original title.

The Shield of Prator [The Shield of the Sun]
The Sword of Kas [Not in SRD]

I agree, but the biggest crimes are those perpetrated against Bigby and Mordenkainen.

True, but I guess that didn't bug me as much because I understood stripping out the IP when they appeared in the SRD. Seeing an actual WOTC book strip those names out was depressing.

I *think* it was because the Spell Compendium is supposed to supercede all the other previously published versions of the spells. If you look at the Spell List, it only lists the PHB and the Compendium as the sources. Kinda like they thought they MIGHT do a SRD update...

Interesting. I also remember seeing the Spell Compendium listed as the Spell Compendium Volume One at one point in time as well. Maybe years from now if we get another anniversary D&D book we'll get to hear some of the "inside baseball" stories about things like this that might have been going on.

There were a fair number of new Otto, Otiluke, Tenser, etc. spells in the 2e Greyhawk Adventures as well.

I would have loved to see a 3e Greyhawk book that could have adapted spells like Tenser's Hunting Hawk or Otiluke's Fire and Ice.

These spells were nice. For the most part, they were not tremendously powerful, but rather had a theme to them - Bigbys various hand spells were among them. A 3e conversion of those would indeed be nice.

Thank you all for your suggestions and research. That was an exhaustive list.

How about Melf's minute Meteors? I don't think that spell was ever published in 3.0

Bucknards everful purse. I seem to remember it gave you more coins when you put a few in.

Thanks

You forgot the Head of Vecna.
