You should ideally deserialize your JSON into a type that matches the structure of the JSON.

List<Spell>

List<Spell>

List<Spell>

List<Spell> is apparently not what your JSON represents.

Looks like it's a single Spell.

Does deserializing into Spell instead of List<Spell> work?

the json structure seems to begin with...

{
  "spell": [
    {
      "name": "Acid Splash",
      ...
    }]
}

{
  "spell": [
    {
      "name": "Acid Splash",
      ...
    }]
}

{
  "spell": [
    {
      "name": "Acid Splash",
      ...
    }]
}

{
  "spell": [
    {
      "name": "Acid Splash",
      ...
    }]
}

so the outmost token is an object, not a list

{ }

{ }

{ }

{ } object

[ ]

[ ]

[ ]

[ ] array

public record RootObject(List<Spell> Spell);

public record RootObject(List<Spell> Spell);

public record RootObject(List<Spell> Spell);

public record RootObject(List<Spell> Spell);

should work, if you pass serialization options to change the casing
