http://www.dmsguild.com/product/177907/The-Red-Book-of-Spell-Strategy

I've just put up my first work for sale. Its Pay What you Want, but its also 136 pages of expansion rules, so please take that into consideration. I highly value the input of the Candlekeep Community, so I'd like to hear your views on some of what I made. I know some of it has to be broken, but hopefully the concepts help improve the game. At the end of this, I'll list the table of contents.

The Red Book of Spell Strategy is a 136 page collection of new class options, Feats, Backgrounds, Rituals, Spells, Magic Items, Monsters, and race. There is a focus in this work on the Eastern Realms (particularly Thay and Rashemen and its surrounding underdark), but the majority of the rules are written for use anywhere in the Forgotten Realms. This work also attempts to fill in holes that are missing in the 5th edition spell lists for certain arcane traditions. Much of this work is tailored for DM use as well, focusing on NPC spellcaster types like the Red Wizards of Thay, Durthans, and Narfellian Demonbinders, amongst others. I welcome feedback on this, as I know that there is much that can be improved upon. However, much of what I put together was to show various options, but not all has been able to be playtested.
