Spell School [3.5]
« on: October 04, 2016, 11:11:57 AM »
What effects or abilities have different outcomes based on the school of a spell?  I'm thinking of things like a gnome's racial save bonus vs illusions, or an elf's save vs enchantments. Is there a list somewhere of this stuff?

The disobedience spell doesn't count because it's based on effect, not school (even though it name-checks charm and compulsion). Correct?

So stuff like :  the Illithid Compulsion feat in CPsi is just (compulsion) subschool?

The various Psi/Magic Transparencies split up a number of schools and disciplines.

Shadow Evocation and Conjuring, also come to mind.

What you want doesn't exist. If you are instead searching for a list of all spells with a certain descriptor:

Take my spells spreadsheet. Delete everything but the schools and name column. Replace all instances of the schools names with nothing. Sort the schools column, leaving on the descriptors.
