I want cantrips.

I want honest to god cantrips. Not just the starter spells like flame and heal. But cantrips like mage hand, clean item, or ghost sound (you could make a sound come from a wall to distract a monster so you could sneak up on them).
Here's a site. scroll down to the list most of them are inapplicable but some would be nice to have.

What's a cantrip?

you know what mages start to practice with. Then they use real useful spells after they've practiced those. Old rpgs had them how do you not know?

A cantrip, also known as an orison in some pnp games, is a low cost spell that has relatively unlimited uses but produces a relatively mundane effect (like ghost sound which generates a noise to distract an enemy in a direction away from yourself).

Polite and helpful

Rude and unhelpful

OMG - All of you asking this question do UNDERSTAND that you are writing these questions on the World Wide Web where most answers yto simple questions are mere keystrokes away.

Cantrap: (n.) A type of minor spell in the Dungeons and Dragons role-playing game, generally the simplest and weakest kind available to learn (or half a dozen similar meanings)

How is this process too hard? Someone please tell me that you are all quadriplegics typing by blowing into straws thus making looking something up on the internet TOO HARD!

I did look it up, and came across various definitons. I, and probably others, were asking what it means in the context of the TES world, which is not an unreasonable question...

A lot of people are lazy to look it up. It also considered polite for a person to define something possibly not universally known.

Yup! I'd be an idiot to automatically assume everyone on the internet knows DnD terminology let alone understands it. :P
