Type Book
Name Book of Changes
Icon 32px
A student's primer to the magic arts of Transmutation, with many lavish illustrations from the school's early experimental history: half-wizard-half-Spiders, wizards with Blade Noses, or beaked tentacles instead of legs. The text is full of reassurances that this kind of thing doesn't happen anymore, though some potential Transmuters decide to take up Charms instead.

The Book of Changes is the starting spellbook for Transmuters.
