Tier 1/OTS

An OTS Spell Book is capable of holding spells, which are transferred to it from scrolls. The book can hold up to six spells, which can be INVOKEd as with scrolls.

Analyze

You analyze the dark leather grimoire and sense that the creator has provided the following information:
OVERVIEW

Page Addon

A separate certificate can be used to add additional pages to an existing Spell Book. A Spell Book can have up to 5 pages. Each page can hold up to 6 spells. Page addons are separate from any Tier unlocks.

Additional Information

To transfer a spell from a scroll, use PONDER to first select the individual spell on a scroll and then use TRANSFER, similar to a Sigil Staff.

Spell knowledge scrolls (written in vibrant ink) cannot be transferred to the book. Only spells below level 20 may be transferred. The spell must be findable on scrolls to be recharged.

If the scroll has more charges than the book can hold, the book will transfer charges up to the maximum (40) and leave the remaining charges on the scroll.

Transferring a spell off of a scrollwill reduce the value similar to how it is done with a Sigil Staff.

If the last charge of a spell is used up in the book, that spell slot will become empty and available for transferring another spell. SCRATCH can be used to remove a spell from the book, making that slot available for use again.
