My prompt

A technomage is a character class for Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition. A technomage is a spellcaster for a science fiction campaign set in the future.
Technomage spells blend wizardry with science and technology.
1st level technomage spells.

I instructed it to create a spell list (6 spells), with two passes to improve the names, and and got: 1. generate kinetic field 2. generate force field 3. create telepad 4. sonic boom blast 5. create humanoid android 6. charge battery

Then for each spell, I ask for more details. Giving a blank spell template helped, but wasn't essential (it did reduce the number of times I re-submitted the instruction)

Generate Kinetic Shield[edit]

Generate Kinetic Shield
1st level transmutation (ritual)
Casting time: 1 minute
Range: Touch
Components: V, S
Duration: 1 hour
You touch an object and an invisible kinetic shield surrounds it.
The shield grants the object a +1 bonus to AC for 1 hour.

Curious that it only grants an AC bonus to objects, but if a technomage is dealing with robots or other bits of technology, this might make sense.

Generate Force Field[edit]

Generate Force Field (1st level technomage spell)
Casting Time 1 action
Range 30 feet
Components: V,S,M (a magnet and a tiny portion of metal)
Duration Conc. Up to 10 minutes
A protective energy field appears around a creature of your choice within range, granting it advantage on all saving throws.
At Higher Levels. When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, the target's speed increases by 10 feet.

Create Telepad[edit]

Create Telepad
1st-level evocation
Casting time: 1 minute
Range: touch
Components: V, S, M (two small steel plates, an opaque cube of jade, a white crystal bead, an iron bar and 5 gp in platinum)
Duration: instantaneous
You summon a telepad that allows instant teleportation of up to 100 pounds of matter and 4 cubic feet of volume.
The telepad has a duration of 3 uses or 3 days, whichever happens first.
The telepad can be deactivated by a command word.
The telepad teleports matter to another telepad in range, which must have been created within the past year, and to which the caster has a mental link.
At Higher Levels: When you cast this spell using a spell slot of 2nd level or higher, you can create one additional telepad for each slot level above 1st.

Sonic Boom Blast[edit]

sonic boom blast
1st-level evocation
Casting time: one action
Range:
Components: V, S
Duration: instantaneous
A blast of sound waves hits everything within range.
Each creature in a 15-foot cone must make a Constitution saving throw.
A creature takes 2d8 thunder damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one.

Create humanoid android[edit]

create humanoid android
1st-level transmutation
Casting time: 1 minute
Range: 30 feet
Components: V, S, M (metal scraps worth 250 gp, which the spell consumes)
Duration: Concentration, up to 6 hours
You create a synthetic humanoid figure that appears to be constructed from scrap metal.
The figure has the same size and features as you (or whatever you use for a model for this spell), but it doesn't have any abilities.
It serves as an extension of your senses and your hands.
You can see, hear, smell, taste, and feel through it.
While using this spell you can cast touch spells through it.
You can also use it to open an otherwise inaccessible container, such as a locked door.
It can carry items, but it can't use them.
The android has an AC of 15 and 10 hit points.
Any damage it takes is transferred to your own hit points. (You take the damage whenever you end the spell.)
It dies if it falls to 0 hit points.

I generated about a dozen interesting results for this spell, in the end I just picked one. This one seems to have a "find familiar" vibe. Some results were like "conjure X" spells, some were like a raise dead spell, some were just whacky. I may come back to this one.

Charge battery[edit]

Charge battery
1st-level transmutation
Casting time: 1 action
Range: 60 feet
Components: V, S
Duration: Instantaneous
A blue, electric spark travels from the index finger of your dominant hand to the battery you target. The battery regains however much battery power you choose to restore.
