The Lost Treatise To Witchcraft & Weaponry
Warrior and wizards have long integrated both arcane and martial techniques into the ecclectic art of spellswording. Adventures such as Raviv Tennenbrant, Vessek Hardbrewer among others have been immortalzed through their spells. All of these spells have been recovered by a daring adventurer in a partially destroyed treatise in an unnamed dungeon.
Some of these spells have possible subclasses that would offer these spells. Speak to your DM about which spells from your expanded spell list they would replace, if any. Some spells list Arcane Trickster and/or Eldricth Knight as subclassses. For Eldritch Knights, this means they could learn any spell with their tag any time they learn a spell, even if it is not from the school of Abjuration or Evocation.
