Walking tome
A spellbook that has gone too long without being read. It overflows with magic, forming thick armour from its binding, legs from its pages, and periodically erupting in flurries of free-floating, self-casting spells. |
Walking tomes are self-animated arcane constructs most notable for being able to Conjure Living Spells. Much like Foxfires, living spells will seek out nearby targets and attempt to ram into them, destroying themselves to inflict a magical effect. Fortunately, living spells are fragile and can be instantly dispersed with any sort of attack.
Walking tomes may be found in the Depths and Tukima's Studio.
Walking tome types
; Walking crystal tome - Among the deadlier tomes, these books cast the highly-damaging Lehudib's Crystal Spear.
; Walking divine tome - Their living Smiting spells don't deal much damage individually, but bypass nearly all forms of defense and come in greater numbers.
; Walking earthen tome - Living Petrify spells might not do any damage, but will leave their victims helpless to avoid these tomes' surprisingly hefty physical strikes.
; Walking frostbound tome - These tomes create mayhem with flurries of living Iceblast spells.
