By Hook or By Crook - The Covenant Library

Stocking the Shelves

This saga has neglected to define the lab texts gained from our Build Points during covenant creation before play; instead opting to define the texts in-play as needed. The following rules are used for converting these undefined 'levels' of text into a usable item added to the covenant library. Levels remaining can be found on the library page.

Rules for defining books in play: When someone wants a specific something, roll a stress die. If it succeeds, add the text to the library and subtract the required number of levels from the remaining available. If the roll fails, the book is not in the library and must be obtained through other means.

• Spell from core book: 3+
• Spell from non-core book: 6+
• Spell you made up: 6+ - 9+ (depending on the weirdness of the spell)
• Spell based on a mystery cult or virtue requirement: 12+ or higher, or maybe simply unavailable
• Spell of over level 50: 9+ or higher, or maybe simply unavailable

• Tractatus on an art, arcane ability or academic ability: 3+
• Tractatus on a supernatural ability: 9+ or higher
• Tractatus on any other ability: 6+
