Writable book

Writable books can be found off the shelf as some merchant events and come pre-filled with pages that can be torn out.

Players are able to create custom books at the Duskruin Written Word shop by combining pages with covers. The pages have a 1021 character capacity; longer than the Wax Eloquent paper. In addition to longer page character counts, the Written Word's books allow you to store small items within, such as a quill or the bookmarks also sold in the shop.
