'''Thaumaturge Tomes''' were introduced at the Grand Auction of 5123 on March 26, 2023. The Thaumaturge Tome was designed and coded by GM Auchand. During the August 2023 run of Duskruin, the tomes, up to Tier 4, became generally available, sold at [[BVShop:Paranormal Pages|Paranormal Pages]]. Tier 5 will remain of "exceptional rarity." At tier 5, you can have 10 verbs unlocked but not all of the verbs listed to the right. This is intentional for each tome to retain some uniqueness. |
|||
You analyze your jewel-inlaid tome and sense that the creator has provided the following information: |
|||
You may {{boldmono|[[SUMMON]] TOME}} if your tome is lost due to a disconnect or it does not return upon logging off. |
|||
All combat action SMR success is level based. |
|||
The combat actions occur automatically if the tome has ''anima'', it is flying via {{boldmono|[[RAISE]]}}, and an enemy is present. |
|||
You may {{boldmono|[[LOOK]] AT TOME}} to determine how much ''anima'' has been infused into it. You may do this when the tome is in your hand or it is flying. |
|||
<pre{{log2}}>Bound by covers of aged dark leather, the tome's front cover is inlaid with a winking red stone set in an oval of gold. The pages are trimmed in a dusting of gilt. |
|||
The tome is currently infused with 222 anima.</pre> |
|||
Thaumaturge Tomes can only send messages to others if their [[demeanor]] toward you is not cold. |

Thaumaturge Tomes were introduced at the Grand Auction of 5123 on March 26, 2023. The Thaumaturge Tome was designed and coded by GM Auchand. During the August 2023 run of Duskruin, the tomes, up to Tier 4, became generally available, sold at Paranormal Pages. Tier 5 will remain of "exceptional rarity." At tier 5, you can have 10 verbs unlocked but not all of the verbs listed to the right. This is intentional for each tome to retain some uniqueness. You may SUMMON TOME if your tome is lost due to a disconnect or it does not return upon logging off. All combat action SMR success is level based. The combat actions occur automatically if the tome has anima, it is flying via RAISE, and an enemy is present. You may LOOK AT TOME to determine how much anima has been infused into it. You may do this when the tome is in your hand or it is flying. Bound by covers of aged dark leather, the tome's front cover is inlaid with a winking red stone set in an oval of gold. The pages are trimmed in a dusting of gilt. The tome is currently infused with 222 anima. Thaumaturge Tomes can only send messages to others if their demeanor toward you is not cold. Tier 1 (Spellglider)AnalyzeThis item is a Thaumaturge Tome. It can be altered, but it must remain a tome, folio, ledger, or some other type of book. It has the following capabilities: RAISE: makes the tome come alive and attack for you. Can only be activated if the tome contains at least 5 anima. PUT: places a scroll in the tome, consuming it for anima (max 250). Uses syntax PUT {SCROLL} IN {TOME}. TELL: select zest verbs from the following list, with syntax TELL {TOME} TO UNLOCK {VERB}. ATTEND, FLIP, GAZE, HUG, LICK, PEER, POKE, PONDER, RUB, SQUINT, SMELL, TAP, THUMP, and TURN. Usage
Note that the fluffy verbs above must be unlocked using ATTUNE. Combat Action MessagingThis is a passive ability. A flying jewel-inlaid tome's pages rustle with irritation, flipping past scenes of battle and bloodshed as it hones in on a kobold. [SMR result: 435 (Open d100: 54, Bonus: 3)] Flying high before undertaking an aerial dive at a kobold, your jewel-inlaid tome unleashes a dazzling arcane projectile! ... 25 points of damage! Strong blow to right arm breaks it! The kobold is stunned! Tier 2 (Spellwarden):AnalyzeCan unlock up to 4 zests total. PULL: creates a WRITEable parchment. Cooldown: 15 mins. Combat Action - Tactical Tutelage: Grants +5 DS / +3 TD per tier for 1 min every 5 mins. Cost: 3 anima. Usage
Combat Action MessagingThis is a passive ability. A flying jewel-inlaid tome zips before you, fanning through its pages until it reveals an illuminated treatise on warfare. The runework on the page blazes vivid cerulean. As you stare at the words, you feel the weight of tactical knowledge build in you, allowing you to better protect yourself. Tier 3 (Spellweaver):Thaumaturge Tomes can only send messages to others if their demeanor toward you is not cold. You can WRITE a message of up to 900 characters and CLEAN the tome to erase the message.AnalyzeCan unlock up to 6 zests total. WRITE: Write a message of 900 characters or less in the tome. THROW: Sends a cross-realm message to the target with syntax THROW {TOME} AT {PLAYER}. Combat Action - Harsh Lesson: AOE SMR attack against up to 5 foes. Cost: 1 anima per target. As long as two mobs are in the room the tome has a random chance to execute the AOE attack instead of the single target attack. Usage
Combat Action MessagingThis is a passive ability. A flying jewel-inlaid tome's pages rustle with irritation, flipping past scenes of battle and bloodshed as it hones in on a kobold. In a rustling spiral, your jewel-inlaid tome unfurls to reveal a vibrantly illuminated spell form that pulses with arcane light! [SMR result: 408 (Open d100: 31)] Arcane energy streaks toward a kobold and collides in a volatile clash of mana and matter! ... 20 points of damage! Blast of cold air to left knee causes a polar knee cap! The kobold is stunned! [SMR result: 443 (Open d100: 64)] Arcane energy streaks toward a kobold and collides in a volatile clash of mana and matter! ... 15 points of damage! Glancing blow to right eye scratches cornea! The kobold is stunned! Tier 4 (Spellvault):Each attuned spell has 100 charges. The spells do not replenish after 24 hours. You must ATTUNE again and hope for the best. You do not need to be holding the tome to invoke spells off of it. You may invoke spells from the tome while it is in flight. >raise tome > Raising your jewel-inlaid tome aloft, you whisper an arcane incantation and channel a filament of mana into the tome's pages. It vibrates in your hand, then rises on a current of air, flapping its covers as it begins flying in lazy circles around you. >invoke 1207 tome 1d100: 63 + Modifiers: 308 == 371 You raise the jewel-inlaid tome and gesture to invoke the Force Projection spell. Sparks begin to fly between the jewel-inlaid tome and your fingers. With a sudden burst of enthusiasm, the sparks jump into your hand and a charged feeling surrounds you. AnalyzeCan unlock up to 8 zests total. ATTUNE: Selects 1-3 random combat spells for which the tome becomes a scroll. Cooldown: 1 day. Combat Action - Booklash: If owner is incapacitated in combat, performs a Major Elemental Wave. Cost: 30 anima. Cooldown: 1 hour. Usage

The triton assassin's back is shattered into icy oblivion! The triton assassin gurgles once and goes still, a wrathful look on his face. A triton assassin is buffeted by the corruscating arcane energy and is knocked to the ground. ... 40 points of damage! Weapon arm freeze-dried! Add water and stir. The assassin's curved black main gauche falls to the ground. The triton assassin is stunned! > You don't seem to be able to move to do that.
