Ah - I see! You’re basically trying to build a case to win over your D&D group! I can see how your approach could be effective, especially if your players tend to think of gaming in mostly D&D terms. The only compendium of BRP spells I am aware of is Call of Cthulhu’s Grand Grimoire and it seems ill suited for a D&D style fantasy setting (at least the ones I have been involved in). Having said that, I did create a table in Microsoft Word that aggregated and summarized some of the spells from the Big Gold Book, Magic World and Advanced Sorcery that I though my novice players at the time would be interested in (they were playing D&D 3.5 previously). PM me an email address and I will email it to you (assuming. I can find it on my laptop - it’s been nearly a decade). It probably only summarizes 30 or 40 spells but they tended to be tactical / battle style spells like the ones my D&D players were used to.

Just to make sure I understand… You said you are 87 pages into making a master list of spells. Are those spells from your D&D campaign that you have converted to BRP or is that an attempt to compile all the spells across all relevant BRP variants (Big Gold Book, Elric, Mythras, OpenQuest, Magic World, Renaissance. etc.)? In the first case you might want to check out Classic Fantasy for Mythras from The Design Mechanism as the author has already done the conversion work for a lot of D&D spells. Also a quick look at their site suggest there is a second book available called Classic Fantasy Expert Set which offers even more spells. If you are trying to compile all BRP spells or all BRP fantasy spells then I wish you luck. That’s going to be a large task!

No what I'm trying to do is compile all spells that I can find that have been put out for various BRP systems. What I'm trying to do is get my players up for converting to this system. I want to show them that it can be very robust and complex and fun. I fully realize that we will likely not use the overwhelming majority of these spells. But I would like a large master list of them to pull from and to sell my players on.

Hello All

As noted previously in my other topics, I'm super new.  Trying to convert my long running DnD campaign to BRP/magic worldesque rules.  I'm working to compile two things.  One is a master skills list from any and all relevant books and systems.  The other is a similar list but with any and all spells.  I'm 87 pages into my spells list.  Skills are starting now.  Before I go nuts diving into this, does anyone have or has anyone published a master list of skills?

Hello all! Still super new to BRP. Excited about it. I'm learning the system right now and in a few weeks I plan on running a 3 or 4 session game for my group to see if we are going to switch permanently. Let them get a feel for it. I would like to have a good number of pre-generated characters so we don't have to teach them to build a character to have this trial game. Is there a good place for pregenerated characters? This would be a fantasy style game, sword and sorcery.

I'm very sick of running 5e.  I've been looking for a new rule set to convert to, and I discovered BRP this morning. I just purchased the universal game engine and am excited. 

While I homebrew most things in D&D and will likely do the same here once I get comfortable, I'm wondering if there are any good beastiaries or monster manuals to pull from. I know there are is a decent number in the rulebook but I would like more of course. While I'm trying to learn the system I would like as much content as possible.

Are there any other supplements?  Is mythras compatible? I was looking at that when I was turned onto BRP.
