Iap's Practical Guide to the Arcane #2

Iap’s Practical Guide to the Arcane (#2) is a collection of new spells and magic for D&D/D20 Fantasy by Aren Arendsen and published by Seraphim Guard. It is a nine-page product (eight after OGL) with decorated borders and two pieces of black and white art (one, presumably of Iap, reused from the first volume).

The main body of the product is fifteen new spells, all credited to the mysterious Iap, almost all are non-combat spells, though some could have application in combat to a creative mind. Non-combat oriented and creative spells are always a welcome addition to the books of magic. A few of the spells build on the spells contained in the first Practical Guide (though that product is not needed). There are spells for copying items, spells for transportation, even one spell (Iap’s Planar Domain) that creates your own perfect “home away from home”a pocket dimension of your own, lastly there are a pair of spells that permanently change a character by manipulating feat selection. Many of Iap’s spells are quite powerful for their level and several could easily cause problems in a campaign. However, that caveat having been stated, they are quite inventive and interesting.

Five magic items, based on the spells included, conclude the product and, again, some are above the power curve but quite interesting.

Iap’s Practical Guide to the Arcane, volume two, like the first volume, is useful for inspiration but the game balance of the spells must be checked carefully against what is wanted in a campaign.
