Alustriel’s Spells

Homebrewing 5R Versions

There used to be a number of spells included in D&D that are credited to Alustriel.  I’ve become interested in them as I am setting up to run an Edge of Ruin campaign.  I’ll be using these spells as “name drop” opportunities for the pre-game that one of our players is running for us (I get to play, yea!).

I found homebrew versions of each of the below spells on DnDBeyond.  All but the first can be traced to 2e sources.  I don’t know where the first came from. The spells and sources for the most recent official versions I could find are:
