Request help with a custom magic item
Greetings all!
The DMG allows for creation of both charge-based and infinite at-will use items. Does anyone else think that Bocobb's blessed book might count as a charged item that could be turned into an infinite use item for writing spells into it? Possibly re-fluffed as a crystal orb, or the like?

Re: Request help with a custom magic item
I think that's making a logical jump off a cliff. It's also fairly pointless; the Blessed Book is already infinite for any practical purpose, where practical use is defined as "holds every useful spell ever printed for D&D 3.5." The only way you're going to fill up a Book is to obsessively collect every junk spell as well.

Re: Request help with a custom magic item
Kind of hard to refluff. You put a spell in a spellbook by writing the spell into it. You can't exactly scribe it into a crystall ball.
I suppose you could have it as a magical book that would turn to the page of whatever spell you state before opening it or a blank page if it doesn't exist.
You could adjust the price I suppose probably making it at least 3 times more expensive. However, given the huge capacity of the spellbook I don't know if anyone would want a larger version as they'd have trouble finding enough spells to fill it.

Re: Request help with a custom magic item
All good existing spells. What about research?
Anyway, you do have some good points I suppose.

Buy the handy haversack, put 2 BBB in it. Success!

Re: Request help with a custom magic item
Which, due to cruddy strength (would you believe.... a 4?) and my liking to have lots of spare stuff to use, I was going to get anyway. Hmmmm.
Also useful for storage of familiars, if I get an air source in there... assuming of course I can find enough feats to take obtain familiar. :PLast edited by Josh the Aspie; 2009-06-12 at 02:16 AM.
