Does look like it's OGL, though I find it a bit confusing with all the legalese what aspects are actually protected. For example, I'm not entirely sure if I could make a spell called Bigby's Hand, since the proper name "Bigby" might be protected. I think I'll just play it safe and rename and reflavorize everything. I'm not particularly invested in DND 5E anyway. More just drawing inspiration from it at this point.


That is the correct approach indeed.
