I did think of dividing it up actually, I think I'll do that. It's just that seeing the spell list makes me a bit antsy at what to choose hahahaha
The idea of separating them by usefulness is very true too, I kept feeling like the direct command spells were much stronger and more useful than the communication one, but there were communication ones that I didn't put in because it felt like too much.
Thanks for the tips and pointers! I may come back in a while with a Blood Magic one, and I'm toying with a sort of Archery style but for black powder guns. I really like Old School Stylish and the JRPG-y vibe it lends the game :)
