Some spells were at one point in development considered to be included in the game but ultimately were cut. The icons for them are present in the game files.

The following sections are '''''recreations''''' based on [https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c6/Dungeons_%26_Dragons_System_Reference_Document.pdf D&D 5th edition SRD]. Some stats were modified to make them feel more like the versions that would work in the game, such as changing spell duration of "1 hour" to "until long rest", as Larian did with other similar spells.
===Magic Jar===
{{SpellPage
| name =Magic Jar
| image =Magic Jar.webp
| level =6
| school =Necromancy
| ritual =
| class learns at level 11 = Wizard
| summary =It lets you posess a humanoid and control their body as your own.
| description =Your body falls into a catatonic state as your soul leaves it and enters the jar. 

You can attempt to possess any humanoid that you can see within 100 feet of your jar. The target must make a [[Charisma]] [[saving throw]]. Upon success, this creature's soul is stuck in the jar and you have full control of their body.

Your game statistics are replaced by the statistics of the creature, though you retain your {{Ability|Intelligence}}, {{Ability|Wisdom}}, and {{Ability|Charisma}} scores. You retain the benefit of your own class features. If the target has any class levels, you can't use any of its class features.

{{Prereq|Can only be used outside of combat.}}

| summary = It lets you remove any magical effects from a creature or an object.
| description = Choose one creature, object, or magical effect within range. Any [[List of 3rd level spells|Level 3 spell]] or lower on the target ends. For each [[List of 3rd level spells|Level 4 spell]] or higher on the target, make an ability check using your spellcasting ability. The DC equals 10 + the spell's level. On a successful check, the spell ends.

== Magic Circle ==

| name = Magic Circle
| image = Magic Circle.webp
| level = 3
| school = Abjuration
| ritual = 
| class learns at level 5 = Cleric, Warlock, Wizard
| class learns at level 9 = Paladin
| summary = This spell protects you from a creature type, or prevents a creature type from leaving it.
| description = You create a 10-foot-radius, 20-foot-tall cylinder of magical energy centered on a point on the ground that you can see within range. Glowing runes appear wherever the cylinder intersects with the floor or other surface.

Choose one type of a creature: [[elemental]]s, [[fiend]]s, or [[undead]]. 

The chosen creature type can’t willingly enter the cylinder, has disadvantage on attack rolls against targets within, targets within can’t be charmed, frightened, or possessed by this creature type. 

When you cast this spell, you can elect to cause its magic to operate in the reverse direction, preventing a creature of the specified type from leaving the cylinder and protecting targets outside it.
| range m = 3
| range ft = 10
| aoe = radius
| aoe m = 3
| aoe ft = 10
| higher levels = [[Spells#Upcasting|Upcast]]: Duration increases by 1 hour for each slot level above 3rd.
| variants = Magic Circle: Elemental, Magic Circle: Fiend, Magic Circle: Undead
| notes = * Game files suggest in BG3 version the spell would work on only one creature type at a time, and celestials and fey are missing from that list. In 5e the spell says "Choose one or more of the following types of creatures: celestials, elementals, fey, fiends, or undead."

== Identify ==
{{SpellPage
| name =Identify
| image =Identify.webp
| level =1
| school =Divination
| ritual =yes
| class learns at level 1 =Bard, Wizard, Knowledge Domain
| summary =This spell lets you learn everyting about a magic item or magic effects on a creature.
| description =You choose one object. If it is a magic item or some other magic-imbued object, you learn its properties and how to use them. You learn whether any spells are affecting the object and what they are. If the object was created by a spell, you learn which spell created it.

If you select a creature instead, you learn what spells, if any, are currently affecting it.
| range =touch
| higher levels =
| notes =* In BG3 you learn all stats of an item by default and all effects affecting a creature can be seen in the examine window, making this spell useless in BG3, which is probably why it was cut.

== Arcane Eye ==
{{SpellPage
| name =Arcane Eye
| image =Arcane Eye.webp
| level =4
| school =Divination
| ritual =
| class learns at level 1 =Wizard, Knowledge Domain
| summary =This spell lets you create an invisible magical spying eye to safely scout around.
| description =You create an invisible, magical eye within range that hovers in the air until long rest.

You mentally receive visual information from the eye, which has normal vision and darkvision out to 30 feet. 

You can move the eye up to 30 feet in any direction. There is no limit to how far away from you the eye can move. A solid barrier blocks the eye's movement, but the eye can pass through an opening as small as 1 inch in diameter.
| range m = 9
| range ft = 30
| higher levels =
| notes =* This may sound similar to the [[Scrying Eye]] NPC in Baldur's Gate 3, however the Scrying Eye is actually a result of another 5e spell - [https://www.dndbeyond.com/spells/scrying Scrying], which is quite differently implemented in BG3, as the Scrying's orb can only be seen with see invisibility and it is invulnerable to damage and only can be destroyed by Dispel Magic (or a similar effect).

== Comprehend Languages ==
{{SpellPage
| name =Comprehend Languages
| image =Comprehend Languages.webp
| level =1
| school =Divination
| ritual =yes
| class learns at level 1 =Wizard, Bard, Sorcerer, Warlock
| summary =This spell lets you understand any spoken or written language.
| description =Until long rest you understand the literal meaning of any spoken language that you hear. You also understand any written language that you see. 

This spell doesn't decode secret messages in a text or a glyph, such as an arcane sigil, that isn't part of a written language.
| range = self
| higher levels =
| notes =* This spell could have been used to communicate with enemies and sentient creatures who don't speak Common. Larian probably decided it wasn't worth it to add NPCs who speak various different languages that the player may or may not understand, Additionally, many books would be written in languages you don't know, forcing the player to use this spell, creating obstacles that might feel repetitive and tiresome after a while.

== True Seeing ==
{{SpellPage
| name =True Seeing

| school =Divination
| ritual =
| class learns at level 11 =Wizard, Cleric, Sorcerer, Warlock, Bard
| summary =This spell grants a creature truesight to see through illusions, invisibility and magical secret doors.
| description =Touch an ally to give them the ability to see things as they actually are until long rest. The affected creature has [[File:True Seeing Icon.webp|25px]] [https://www.dndbeyond.com/sources/basic-rules/monsters#Truesight truesight], notices secret doors hidden by magic, sees through illusions, shapeshifters and invisible creatures, all out to a range of 120 feet.
| range = melee
| higher levels =
| notes =* This spell can reveal a lot of hidden information to the player, but it does require you to be level 11, so it would allow the players to immediately see through [[Orin]]'s disguises (as if it wasn't obvious enough) as well as through other shapeshifters like  [[Dolor]] and the other [[Doppelganger]]s, [[Grisly]], [[Jatlo]]. This probably interfered too much with the plot.

== Levitate ==
{{SpellPage
| name =Levitate

| ritual =
| class learns at level 1 =Wizard, Sorcerer
| summary =This spell makes a creature hover in the air.
| description =Choose one creature or loose object within 60 ft. It rises vertically up to 20 feet, and remains suspended there for 10 turns. The spell can levitate a target that weighs up to 500 pounds. An unwilling creature that succeeds on a Constitution saving throw is unaffected.

You can change the target's altitude by up to 20 feet in either direction on your turn. If you are the target, you can move up or down as part of your move. Otherwise, you can use your action to move the target, which must remain within the spell's range.

When the spell ends, the target floats gently to the ground if it is still aloft.
| range = ranged
| higher levels =
| notes =* This spell has the duration of 10 minutes (60 turns) but Baldur's Gate 3 doesn't do durations like that so it would probably only have 10 turns.

| description =This spell repairs a single break or tear in an object you touch, such as a broken chain link, two halves of a broken key, a torn cloak, or a leaking wineskin. As long as the break or tear is no larger than 1 foot in any dimension, you mend it, leaving no trace of the former damage.

This spell can physically repair a magic item or construct, but the spell can't restore magic to such an object.
