2026-07-01 - Spell Search, and the Mid-Summer Wiki Refresh

The Hiraeth wiki has a lot more to work with this summer. The biggest update is the spell library: the Athenaeum Aetherius now has 1,842 spell pages live across cantrips and 1st-9th level magic, backed by a standalone spell-search tool, broader tags, and a few rounds of cleanup. If you have not checked the spell tools in a while, start here:

Spell Library Snapshot

The current spell-book snapshot includes:

169 cantrips
234 1st-level spells
342 2nd-level spells
301 3rd-level spells
240 4th-level spells
188 5th-level spells
130 6th-level spells
99 7th-level spells
70 8th-level spells
69 9th-level spells

Most of that work landed in June, with 1,214 documented spell-page creates, 219 existing spell pages confirmed instead of duplicated, 85 existing-page content refreshes, 151 metadata/tag fixes, and 66 legacy duplicate pages removed.

Spell Search Is Now A Front Door

The point of adding this much spell content is not just to make the wiki bigger. It should be faster to answer table questions like:

What can I cast with a bonus action?
Which spells deal fire, force, radiant, or psychic damage?
Which options are concentration, ritual, teleportation, summoning, or resurrection spells?
What can a class list actually access at a specific level?
Which spells force a Dexterity, Wisdom, Constitution, or Intelligence save?

The new search work supports normal text searches plus structured filters for spell level, school, class/list, source, role, damage type, condition, save, attack, action, duration, range, area, component, and mechanic tags.

Tags and Table Review

The June tagging pass covered the full spell book. These tags are meant to make spells easier to find by use at the table: damage, healing, control, movement, protection, teleportation, summoning, upcasting, costly components, concentration, and similar practical buckets.

There is also a new cantrip review to help with table safety. The audit reviewed 169 cantrips and sorted them into:

74 official or partner baseline cantrips
37 likely-fine cantrips
40 watch/review cantrips
18 potentially too-strong cantrips

That is not an automatic ban list. It is a review tool, we are slowly working on reviewing these potentially too-strong cantrips - shockingly they mostly come from Kobold Press books which I felt historically their content was fairly balanced.`

A Recent Timeline

The wiki existed well before this update window, but I wanted to make announcements like more regular and in late 2025 is a useful marker for the current wave of work. Rebels of Eschatia setup started around November and December. Since then, the spell library and campaign-reference tools have grown quickly.

November-December: useful recap marker for Rebels setup and pre-game material. The wiki itself predates this.
January: early 2026 page work, spell/chapter cleanup, and the start of the active Rebels session archive.
February: 33 documented local spell-page creates, plus more early Rebels session summaries.
March-April: continued setting, lore, cantrip, and spell-reference work.
May: more campaign-summary cleanup, including the Jade Creek and Blight stretch.
June: the major spell-library sprint, high-level spell verification, duplicate cleanup, tag verification, and spell-search work.

Campaign Catch-Up

For Rebels of Eschatia players, the session archive is also easier to use now. The exported archive currently runs from s01: The Silence of the Thorn on January 16 through s15: The Soul-Pull in the Deep on June 20.
