Library Discoveries (5e)
One of Michael "The Professor" Surbrook's greatest loves (and that of his friend and editor¸ Jennifer Shinefeld) is books. He is a bibliophile in every sense of the word¸ and now he brings that love and knowledge to add to your campaigns. Designed specifically for people playing 5e campaigns. Continuing the combination of utility¸ imaginative content¸ and deep research found in the Discoveries series¸ Evil Beagle's resident scholar and master-of-cleverness¸ Michael Surbrook ¸ brings another useful toolkit to bear for Game Masters who want to elevate their games. In this case¸ Library Discoveries is a small-but-information packed tome dedicated to elevating the presence of printed information in your fantasy campaigns¸ including - Tons of information about books - what they are¸ their historical significance¸ and their many uses. The physical aspects of books and other means of keeping the written word contained for others to read. An entire section dedicated to the concept of writing systems - their development and nature. A rather significant section dedicated to allowing the Dungeon/Game Master to randomly generate any number of books and documents that might be found in a treasure trove¸ wizard's sanctum¸ nobleman's collection¸ or any library great or small. This last section is the "meat-and-potatoes" of the product for GMs running campaigns¸ but the entire product should be a proud addition to the collection of anyone who loves the history and importance of the written word.
