I cannot publish a homebrew race because it has access to the Hex spell as a racial trait. From my reading of things, all material from the basic rulebooks should be allowed, and Hex appears to be part of the original Player's handbook.
The items that are free to use are the items that appear in the SRD or Basic Rules (two separate documents, but referred to collectively on this site as 'the Basic Rules') or the Elemental Evil Players' Companion, which was also free. If DDB lists the source for a spell as a book you would have had to pay for a hard copy of, then it's not free here. So yes, Hex is licensed content.
The only free Crit Role content is the Blood Hunter Class and 1 subclass each for Monk (Way of the Cobalt Soul), Paladin (Oath of the Open Sea), Fighter (Gunslinger), and the Gunslinger specific firearms. The rest of the CR content including Wizard subclasses and their unique spells, are not.
