Book Text:

Systematic Tome Research
Volume 1
Our group enchanter is
constantly scribbling in
the books, lording over us
how much smarter he is than
us "silly sword swingers."
Finally it became enough
and I decided to prove him
wrong. Marshaling the
patience of Quellious, I
started watching carefully.
By studying all aspects of
what he does and then
experimenting where he
could not see, I have come
up with a system similar to
what he does that allows
one to create tomes that
one can use to learn
disciplines.
You will need to make many
tomes. Each tome is made
of many parts, the tome



being the most important
piece of all. There are
many tomes, many of which
you may never need to use,
but you can use them to
hone your skills at making
tomes. Additionally you
will need many types of
inks, quills, thickeners
and additives, some of them
the same as used by
casters.
You will need to use a
different quill for the
different class for which
that a tome may be
intended. You will choose
additives for the way in
which the discipline itself
may be resisted by the
target of the discipline.
Thickeners help solidify
the ink as you use it. You
chose which thickener to



use by a very general
classification of the
discipline. Finally, you
will need to use one or
more inks, depending on the
properties of the
disciplines. While it may
seem silly, it ends up
being much more important
than one would expect. The
emphasis of the differing
colors of ink, even if they
are subtle, help the mind
assimilate the discipline,
making it possible to learn
it in the flash that it is
possible to learn such
things. The details of the
creation and use of each of
these are in the later
volumes of these books.
