Gloumerrick book
Gloumerrick books were first introduced by GM Jharra's merchant, Gloumerrick, as a way to bring books with pre-written text into the game. All of the original run Gloumerrick books included short stories, poetry, essays, or reference texts submitted by players, as written by their characters. Since then, GM Valyrka has taken over ownership of the Gloumerrick book script, re-releasing some of the original run books and also bringing new books into the game. In 2019, Wyil Rvaln's the traveling book wagon, A Likely Story, started to make periodic visits to various towns in the game with both old and new books available for purchase. In addition, The Last Chapter at Rings of Lumnis' Agora Promenade had a variety of Gloumerrick books for sale starting in 2022. Books built on this script have also been featured at Ebon Gate and associated with various quests, and they can be found in various libraries of Elanthia. The current Gloumerrick book script is the third iteration of the book concept. The original release books were actually containers with physical page objects inside of them, each with its own read and look description, to form a cohesive book. The script was created approximately a year after the first books were released, with second generation Gloumerrick books being reduced to a single item with scripted capability to turn and read individual pages. Current third generation Gloumerrick books are built on an updated script. Gloumerrick BookUsage
