Most spells in this book require much training before they can be effectively cast.

[[Haste]] is valuable to almost any character, while everything else here can be extremely useful to someone.

Type Book
Name Book of Wizardry
A book of various magic spells, useful for any sufficiently-talented spellcaster. Mages of a scholarly nature consider it a point of pride to have contributed in some way to this work, though more than a few of them have been slain by jealous rivals using their own spells against them.

Most spells in this book require much training before they can be effectively cast. Haste is valuable to almost any character, while everything else here can be extremely useful to someone. Agony is an excellent damage source for Necromancy-specialists, Invisibility is wonderful for short blades-wielding stabbers, and Spellforged Servitor is a phenomenal damage booster for those who rely on Conjurations.
