{{{description}}}


An ancient volume hovers in the air, its pages turning on their own volition and glowing with magical sigils.
Sentient Wizardly Tomes. The origins of the living spellbook are as mysterious and varied as the art of magic itself. Sometimes, upon death, an archmage’s spirit merges with the spellbook and gives it a semblance of life; sometimes, it animates due to a transmutation spell gone awry; sometimes, it does so as a result of a meticulously prepared arcane ritual.
Freed and Bound by Magic. The living spellbook takes after its owner in many ways, mimicking his or her personality, speech patterns, mannerisms, and alignment. Some living spellbooks accidentally come into being as twisted mockeries of their wizard owners, murdering them and adopting their identity. Despite having free wills, they feel bound to their places of creation (usually a wizard’s study) and rarely venture far away from them, even if they have rebelled against their masters.
Constructed Nature. A living spellbook doesn’t require air, food, drink, or sleep. The magic that animates the living spellbook is dispelled when it drops to 0 hit points, at which point it becomes a regular, inanimate spellbook once again.
