[QUOTE="Redthistle, post: 7023447, member: 6778305"] First, I really like your ideas here. However, it might be a good idea to build some limitations into the Guardian Grimoire. Given the number of pages required per spell by respective spell level, the size of such a spell-book might become prohibitive, especially with the addition of all the information needed to support Advantage on those Int-based skill checks. Perhaps by making them into separate volumes organized by school of magic? This might also inspire a wizard or bard or some other collector to go adventuring to find the Guardian Grimoire for a particular arcane tradition, or even to gain a full set of volumes for study and bragging rights? That possibility would also give any particular Guardian Grimoire plenty of opportunity to practice those defensive tactics. With Valentine's Day nigh, I can picture a wizard even attempting to woo a rival spell-slinger's Guardian Grimoire away with gifts and promises of more spells to come. Like a professional athlete, perhaps a Guardian Grimoire might decide to bargain for contractual obligations on the part of its current possessor, with the understanding that failure to deliver will give it the right to move on to a higher bidder.
