Spellbooks

This is a guide to how to create a spellbook for the DM, as well as premade spellbooks containing more unique spells, and their descriptions.

This is for Mystics.

Rarity
The DM can choose to roll the rarity of the spellbook. The rarity determines the levels of the spells within. Roll a 1d100 and consult the chart. Each spellbook not held by a player contains up to 5 spells.

Subject
The DM can choose to roll the school of magic discussed in the book. Roll a 1d8 for every additional level above Common and consult the chart.

Links
Now that you have the subjects, the amount of spells, and the levels of those spells, you may consult these links to help you finally create a spellbook.

Manipulations
Dimensional manipulations are dangerous, bending space into weapons or time to your will, a mark of an advanced mystic. These books contain dimensional manipulations, which are the main weapons of the Dark Dimension subclass but aren't considered necessarily taboo.

Book of Caligostro (Legendary)
