Very nice. I'm going to beat everyone to the question, though: when do you add the APG content?


This looks pretty awesome. After tooling around with it for a little bit, I only have three suggestions.

First, I'd like the ability to look through and select all the spells of one level and then add spells from another level without having to re-select all the previously selected spells. That is, I'd like any spells I select to remain selected until I click a "reset" or "unselect all" button or something.

Second, I'd encourage you to add the APG spells as well. I understand that it's a lot of work putting in all the spells that you have, and I really appreciate it. I'd just suggest that you add the APG spells (which are OGL, in case you were unsure) to further add to the functionality of your rather nifty piece of software.

Finally, after a little use, I realized that any domain spells which are not typical cleric spells aren't on the cleric list. You might want to add them in. I know, more work, but increased functionality!


Having the spells organized by levels once the spellbook is made is would be great. Keep up the good work.


I haven't heard anything conclusive about whether the APG spells are even in the spell database, but I've searched for them in the feed and haven't seen any. As soon as they are they should appear in SpellMaster as well.

The generator pulls the RSS feed directly from the db, so everything in the database's RSS feed is everything that should appear in the generator. I've just initiated contact with Mike and will let you know what he says!

Mauril, keeping track of which spells have been selected over the course of a session is definitely something I'm going to add. It's a bit of a complicated head game, but I'm working on it :) And by domain spells are you referring to the specific domain powers that clerics get with each domain choice? As above, it would be somewhat redundant to keep up my own database when there's already such a great one in existence, but I'll make it a point to ask Mike about that too (assuming that is in fact what you meant. Please clarify if I'm mistaken.)

He isn't referring to the domain powers. He's referring to the domain spells that clerics are granted. For instance, the Trickery domain clerics are granted invisibility as a second level spell. That spell, obviously, will never appear on a cleric spell list unless they have that domain. Enabling it to show up on your generator after selecting your domain would be extremely important for a user who plays a cleric, I would think.

There's also Perram's Spell Card Generator, here (http://www.thegm.org/perramsSpellbook.php)

I plan exclusively online nowadays so the cards are not as useful to me, but this site does include the APG spells, as well as spells from other source books.


A major part of my campaign's 'loot' for Wizards is the Spell Book. This also allows me to insert 'variants' of common spells to the system. That is solvable by setting in a 'dead' slot or two on my part. Your system is better than my '%' charts which take time to create and to use, but yours doesn't seem to allow for 'extra' spells.

Handy! Styrian might start using this right away! (I'm forever looking up suggestion and glitterdust.)

Feature Request:

Add an option to "Generate Random Spellbook" which would follow the rules for random spellbook determination, then spit out a list based on "Caster Level" option (or something appropriate) and then format the page of output in one page for GM's to use as reference when running NPC's.

Good idea?


I like it. One thing I would like to see is references. I would like to be able to select specific resources so that if I don't want any spells from the APG because I'm not using it, then I don't have to instead of manually searching through all the spells. I would also like to be able to look up the original spell. I know that all the information is right there but I'm the kind of guy who wants to look it up in a book too.


Bug Notice- Paladins are having three spells listed as 0-level spells: atonement, detect good, sacrifice. Atonement is clr5/drd5, and not a paladin spell at all. Detect Good is clr1 and not a paladin spell. Sacrifice is either the clr4/wiz4 spell (and again, not a paladin spell) or it's the spell "Paladin's Sacrifice", which is pal2. Regardless, paladins don't even get 0-level spells, which is what tipped me off to something being up.

Antipaladins are only listing three spells.

Oracles are only listing three spells over all nine spell levels.

(I am assuming the the above two "bugs" are just from not having had time to update this awesome free product.)

Query: Are you including any and all Paizo OGC, just Pathfinder OGC, or simple Core and APG?

Wow, nicely done! And thanks for the credit at the bottom.

With something like this out there, I'm gonna have to up my game a bit. :)

Another nice option (for both Perram and and JayBoy), include a way to filter out spells with alignment descriptors (for good and evil clerics).

Neat idea!
