[Tavern Mimic] Spelleater Tome (Patreon)

Wondrous item, uncommon (requires attunement)

Learning and developing new spells can be a tedious and time-consuming process. Luckily, the spelleater tome is a shortcut to becoming a spell slinging savant. Originally a creation of Mo J. Ojojo, the tome has become a favourite among lazy wizarding apprentices the world over.

This book has 8 charges and regains 1d4 + 4 expended charges daily at dawn.

Living Library. This tome is capable of copying and storing magical information. As an action, you can give it a spell scroll of 1st or 2nd level, which it devours, destroying the scroll and adding the spell to its pages. While holding the book, you can cast one of the spells stored within it by expending a number of charges equal to the spell’s level (save DC 13, +5 to hit). The tome can store up to five spells in this way. If storing a new spell would take it above this maximum, you can choose one of its current spells to be replaced. When found, the book already contains one 1st-level spell and one 2nd-level spell, randomly determined.

---------------------------------------

Rare variant: Increase the save DC to 15, the spell attack modifier to +7, and the number of spells the book can hold to seven. The tome can devour spell scrolls of between 1st and 5th level. Additionally, the tome has the Arcane Feast property.

Arcane Feast. You can allow the book to consume the corpse of a spellcaster over the course of 10 minutes, after which it regains 2 expended charges. Once this property of the book has been used, it can’t be used again until the next dawn.
