Latin Spell Names
You do want to add a touch of style to your game, a bit of flare? This archive is for you. The following is list of latin names for Third Edition Dungeons & Dragons spells. Do you want your sinister sorcerer to threaten the players with a “Shocking Grasp" or with “Fulmineus Contingo". The latin here is good enough to add a touch of arcane to your game but not sufficient quality for your ancient studies homework! It’s all presented in one big long list so its easy to print out.
"Magicus circulus contra Malus!"
