Arcane Library

Thanks!

One other thing: could they be somewhat catalogued? Necromantic stuff with the same; all the cosmology stuff together.

These are from TableSmith. I can come up with a bunch more with it if you want.

I am unfamiliar with TableSmith and would like to know more.

Don't forget to use the BOOKSPINNER. Comes in quite handy, and can give such results as:

Alterations for Magicians

The Peacetime Use of Illusions

You can put in some limited parameters...it is really quite handy.
