Whilst I can't fault the creativity (and wish I had more, any, skill in that area) I do question the project as Second Edition comes with plenty of spells in its own right 48 in total, list below, and all the NA edition spells have a direct equivalent already under SE with 2 possible exceptions, Cloud of Chaos although Cloak of Shadows is fairly similar and Firestorm and we have plenty of fiery spells under SE. I think the bit that is missing is mapping the SE spells (sets) to their appropriate Monster
For example under revised Second Edition - Balur could get the Spells of Fire (Ball of Flame, Courage, Fire of Wrath), Grak - if you choose as I do to make him a spellcaster - Spells of the Orc Shaman (Set A): Orc Berserker, Sharpen Blades, Shield of Protection, Witch Lord - both Spells of the Necromancer (Set A): Call Skeleton, Death Bolt, Fear + Spells of the Necromancer (Set B): Raise the Dead, Skulls of Doom, Summon Mummy.
