So far, I haven't wanted to go near the whole "book" thing (e.g., long/pasted scrolls, codices, etc.) The 1e PHB and DMG only given occasional mention to spell books (as opposed to the page or so devoted to scroll manufacture in the DMG). I think what it comes down to is that a scroll (being "self-contained" magic) requires much more attention to detail than a spell book (which is really nothing more than a MU's set of instructions for creating the magic later). But I guess that doesn't mean I shouldn't give some thought to some sort of "book" article to continue the series.New Big Dragonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02412016128904985180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8752950690535469488.post-74169058642187794922012-10-16T07:39:43.912-05:002012-10-16T07:39:43.912-05:00eutruscan gold book

I like the idea of finding cave wall spells - also cool is the idea that sumerian contracts made of clay and were literally broken - you could end a tablet spell by smashing it. I have heard of birch bark books used by sth west native americans and in Java. Ive heard of wizards using tatoos for spell books<br />Konsumterrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18170560484656800416noreply@blogger.com
