What happens when a disjunction hits a blessed book?

One major issue with the thousand pages remaining after a disjunction is the book is FAR too small in comparison to a normal spell book, let alone a thousand page spellbook. Unless the DM allows smaller than normal 'unenchanted' spellbooks, then the disjunctioned book is not even 'up to quality and sized standards' of a normal spellbook.

This well-made tome is always of small size, typically no more than 12 inches tall, 8 inches wide, and 1 inch thick. All such books are durable, waterproof, bound with iron overlaid with silver, and locked.

SO what happens to a magic item inside the bag or portable hole?


So anyway, my question was a little off point, but what happens to an object inside a bag of holding? Or more specificly, is there a ruling on what happens when an extra dimensional space is Disjunction'd?
 

From memory, the extradimensional space is not affected by the Disjunction, but the magic item that allows access to it might become non-magical. In that case, the things in the EDS are not destroyed... but you can't get to them.

That's the way I've always ruled it. I'd allow a PC to build a portal to it, though.

In 3.5, the Book has 1000 pages. You could fit 500 1st level spells, or 55 9th level spells plus change. No magic necessarily going on once the spells are scribed - the pages might just be Real Thin.

-Hyp.

Ooh, ooh, I get to correct Hypersmurf!

Space in the Spellbook

A spell takes up one page of the spellbook per spell level. Even a 0-level spell (cantrip) takes one page.

Ok, back on topic, I think that it'd be unfair to kill the spells in the book. I'd probably steal the fountain idea.

I would think a Gate would work just fine. So long as you know the "coordinates" to your own EDS.

Of course. It is a destroyed magic item. No need to get complicated about it. Makes Disjunction a good spell to toss at annoying archmagi!

So what effect would the spell have on a normal spellbook, given there is nothing specifically magical about the pages in either a blessed book or a normal spellbook, or the spells in either (just the process of writing spells into it)?

So you feel 1000 pages can nonmagicly fit in that one inch thick book?
