Create a Homebrew Spell

Create custom spells by cloning and modifying entries from the D&D 5e catalog.

  1. Open your campaign dashboard
  2. Click the Homebrew tab
  3. Select the Spells sub-tab

Homebrew spells are created by cloning existing catalog entries:

  1. Click Clone from Catalog
  2. Search for a spell (minimum 2 characters)
  3. Results show name, level, school, and source
  4. Click a spell to create a homebrew copy immediately

The new spell appears in your homebrew list with “Based on [original name]” shown in the detail view.

  1. Select a spell from the list
  2. Click Edit
  3. Modify the Name and/or the JSON data containing the spell details
  4. Save your changes

The detail pane shows extracted metadata: spell level and school of magic.

Homebrew spells appear automatically in character spell lists alongside catalog spells for spellcasting characters. They are tagged with an HB badge.

Click Delete on a selected spell. A confirmation prompt appears before deletion.
