[QUOTE="Creamsteak, post: 123849, member: 552"] What! Without a DMG... why I never... (jokingly) Here is the direct copy from the DMG [B]Book of Exalted Deeds:[/B] This holy book is sacred to divine spellcasters of good alignment (LG, NG, CG). Study of the work requires one week, but upon completion the good spellcaster gains a +1 inherent bonus to Wisdom and experience points sufficient to place him halfway into the next level of experience. Divine spellcasters neither good nor evil (LN, N, CN) lose 2d6x1000 experience points for perusing the work. Evil divine spellcasters (LE, NE, CE) lose twice that amount. Furthermore, they have to atone (see the atonement spell) in order to gain further experience. Nonspellcasters who handle or read the book are unaffected. Arcane spellcasters whho read it have 1 point of Intelligence permanently drained and lose 1d6x1000 experience points unless they make a Will Save (DC 15). Except as indicated above, the writing in a book of exalted deeds can't be distinguished from any other magic book, libram, tome, or so on until perused. Once read, the book vanishes, never to be seen from again, nor can the same character ever benefit from reading a similar tome a second time. Minimum Caster Level: 19th Weight 3 lb. [OOC] Now that you have read it you realize that Kas would only be minorly affected, unless the book gives him the mental goal of a geas/quest or atonement. The God Emporer would get pretty burned, however. Because he is the worship that provides his clerics with their magic in most cases. This could spread down the chain if he does not accept the book in his heart as truth. Mina is a mystery. If she is a direct servant of her god, she could get burned. If she is the incarnation of her god she won't even consider touching this book. If she is just an evil little girl she will simply seek atonement or get a geas/quest. This is really, really, open to Edena, however. If you read the atonement spell discription it provides that it is not an absolutely specific spell. It is probably the most open ended spell in the PHB, that I have read. [B]EDIT: NEARING THE END OF THIS THREAD... SHOULD SOMEONE START A NEW THREAD?[/B][/OOC] [/QUOTE]
