This mod adds a collection of 42 cantrips and spells to the game.
You might recognize some of these spells from some of my existing mods - There have been regular requests for these spells to be made available for other races and/or classes than they were initially intended for.
This was, in myopinion, the best way to do so without requiring Script Extender and/or potentially causing conflicts with other popular mods.

You can obtain the scrolls and potions added by this mod either through the Tutorial Chest, or the AV Item Shipment Framework.
AV ISF is not a hard requirement for this mod - if you don’t want to use it, you don’t need to.

There are two primary ways for your Tav or Companion of choice to use and/or learn these spells in game.



. ⋆ Spell Scrolls ⋆ .

All spells and cantrips added by this mod, with the exception of Claw and Bite attacks, are available as Spell Scrolls.

You can cast spells using one of these Spell Scrolls, and Spells can be learned from these Scrolls by transcribing.
Wizards can do so by default, but if you’d like to learn these spells this way on another class, using a mod like this one may be an option.

Casting a spell added by this mod using a Scroll doesn’t cost a Spell Slot, but it requires you to be of high enough level.

⋆ ⁺ ₊ ✧ ₊ ⁺ ⋆



. ⋆ Spell Potions ⋆ .

Spell Potions are a straight-forward way to learn the Spells added by this mod. You consume your Potion of choice, and
immediately learn the spell associated with it, as long as you are of an appropriate level.

If you are too low level for the level of the Spell you’re attempting to learn via Potion, you will not learn the spell.
But don’t fret - as soon as you hit the required level to learn the respective spell, you’ll unlock it without needing to consume the potion a second time.
But if you do want to drink the potion again, just for fun, you can. :)

₊ ✧ ₊

There are two types of Spell Potions added by this mod - Standalone Potions that grant you access to a single spell
when consuming them, and Combined Potions that allow you to learn two thematically connected spells with one Potion.

Standalone Potion spells are not available as Combined Potions and vice-versa. The majority of Spell Potions added by this mod
are Standalone Potions - The following Spells are the exception, and are only available via Combined Potions:

. ⋆ Lunar Missile & Lunar Beacon ⋆ .

As these spells are special cases with variants based on Moon Phase, they’ve been combined into a single potion. Drinking any of the
Moon Phase Potions unlocks both the Lunar Missile Cantrip and the Lunar Beacon Spell of the respective type.
Lunar Missile is available at level 1, while Lunar Beacon is available at level 5 - you don’t need to drink the potion again.
You can only unlock one Moon Phase’s spells at a time; drinking another Moon Phase potion will override the previous one.

. ⋆ Claw & Bite ⋆ .

Similarly, Claw & Bite spells are also unlocked via Combined Potion. This is based on damage type, and you’ll unlock both Claw and Bite
attacks/spells of the same type. Claw is available at level 1, while Bite is available at level 5 - you don’t need to drink the potion again.
You can only learn one type of Claw & Bite attacks/spells at a time. Drinking another Fang & Claw Brew will override the previous one.

Requirements

Mod Fixer

Soft Requirement: AV Item Shipment Framework
You don’t need this mod for the Spellbook to function, but it is compatible and will ship the items added directly to your camp.


₊ ˚ . ⋆ ☾ ⋆ ⁺ ₊ ✧ ₊ ⁺ ⋆ ☾ ⋆ . ˚ ₊

This mod should function normally alongside most other mods.

It does not modify vanilla files or entries in any way that would result in obvious points of conflict. If you encounter a
conflict regardless, please feel free to reach out and I will investigate. Should a patch be required, I’m happy to do so.
I’ll only patch for other mods if I have permission from the mod’s creator. If they decline or are unreachable, I won’t patch for their mod.
