Type Book
Name Book of Minor Magic
A spellbook containing a variety of simple but useful magical incantations. Many prominent spellcasters used this book to begin their arcane studies. First published three centuries ago, it is one of the most well-known grimoires in the world, and is currently on its eighty-eighth printing.

Spells

Tile Spell Type Level
Magic dart.png a - Magic Dart Conjuration 1
Blink.png b - Blink Translocation 2
Call imp.png c - Call Imp Summoning 2


This is the starting book of the Wizard background.

Trivia

Before 0.8, players could choose from three versions of the starting book: flame, frost and summoning.

Strategy

This is a great starting book for beginners, as mephitic cloud and call imp can easily get you through the earlygame. Repel missiles is also a great spell to survive Centaurs, and blink can get you out of nasty situations pretty quickly. However, once you encounter the Lair, the spells this book provides aren't strong enough anymore, and you'll need help of other spells or items to survive there.
