Spellbooks add value to a mage's library as follows: Common spells (those within the Core and Player's Companion) are worth 150 gp per level. Uncommon or rare spells (i.e. ones not appearing in those two books) are worth 250 gp per level. Spells on scrolls are worth 75 gp per level (for Common) and 150 per level (for uncommon). Since each mage casts slightly different versions of the same spell the value for similar spells in cumulative. Therefore, a mage with two spellbooks in his library, each containing the spell Sleep would gain 300 gp towards his library. | Spellbooks add value to a mage's library as follows: Common spells (those within the Core and Player's Companion) are worth 150 gp per level.

It's mostly an accounting ledger of goods procured by the bandits and sold to, presumably, the writer of the ledger, but there are snippets here and there that paint a fuller picture of the writer's life. However, Rabanus is not able to tell if the notes are some elaborate fiction, a deeper code for something entirely else, or the recollections of events far in the past, even though the parchment and ink seems no more than a few years old, at most. |

| + | There are references to a substance called praum, an alchemical substance known colloquially as "godshit" and produced in rare and specific regions around the world. The writer several times refers to the ruined Keep de Chelles, a place Rabanus knows nothing about, and mentions rather derisively a ruling Council in Hob, when the mage knows for a fact that the Salazar family has ruled interrupted in Hob for several Cycles. There are a few throw away references to a place called Pevin, and abandoned buildings within Hob, although that, too, is clearly ludicrous, as Hob is barely large enough to contain its current population, let alone empty warehouses by the docks or dilapidated temples. There was, he thinks, generations ago, a town to the southeast of Hob, near the iron mines, but that place has been abandoned for a hundred years or more and little is left but crumbling stone foundations. | ||
