📋 About This Mod
Rangers will be added to Main Version C in an update. I rarely play them and have a habit of forgetting they're casters in DnD. oops.
The update is still coming, I've just been short on time :)
Thank you for your patience!

With the release of Umbral Barrier 2. 0. 0, moving forward, all the individual releases of the Cantrips and Spells contained in Liber Profanus Vol. 1 will be remade with VFX more closely aligning to the new Umbral Barrier, and then Liber Profanus will be updated for a full 2. 0. 0 release, with the other fixes (i.e. Rangers) included. Before that, I'll release more individual Merge addons too. This will be happening in the background when I have time as I focus on my other projects at the forefront.
As with the new Umbral Barrier, all currently available Main Versions will remain available to download in the Old Files Section for anybody who would still want them.

This is a compilation of my first 11 mods which mainly focus on converting Radiant damage and/or visually-Radiant-type spells to Necrotic damage and/or Necrotic-themed visuals. They have a large focus on Clerics, and Paladins to a lesser extent. For cantrips and spells that other caster classes would/ should have access to, i.e. Umbral Barrier (Blade Ward), they now have access to, as of this compilation release. One liberty was taken regarding this: in vanilla, Fiend Warlocks get access to Flame Strike as a level 5 spell; Great Old One Warlocks will get access to Spectral Wrath.
As of this compilation, all of my modded spells can be upcasted to 9th level for the people who use mods like Expansion or UnlockLevelCurve, etc., and the cantrips will continue to scale to Level 20; For example, Profane Flame will deal between 1d8-4d8 Necrotic Damage on (successful) cast, and the 1d4 Hex-type status effect will last for 2-6 turns. I've also created new icons for a few of my spells that I wasn't completely happy with looking back on the original releases. See screenshots for examples of both.
