Mystical Machinations

The spellbook merchant is huge, repetitive and complex. This is the custom spellbook option list, as well as the guild-specific fluff spellbook list.

Overall signage comes first(signs). Then the universal spellbook options, then the guild specifics (books and titles) organized by guild. There are no room descriptions save the main one. Decorative pieces will be on a different page.

[Mystical Machinations, Entryway] Tendrils of ice blue mist swirl in an hypnotic dance around a coruscating orb of dark cerulean light that hovers in the center of this chamber. Walls of pearlescent white marble encase the strange building like a tomb, lending a feeling of solace and remoteness to this Enchanter's workshop. You also see a nimbus of ghostly light, an ornate silver stand with a glistening ethereal tome on it, and an elegant crystal-paned sign. Obvious exits: northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest.

The sign reads:

        |  There are two types of spellbooks you may purchase.  The  |
        |  more simplistic and inexpensive kind can be found here on |
        |  the bookshelf.  These spellbooks are mostly just for show |
        |  and don't have much in the way of fuctionality.  They     |
        |  will NOT function with any other item sold in this shop,  |
        |  except for spellbook cases which they may be put into.    |
        |                                                            |
        |  The discerning spellweaver may choose to construct their  |
        |  own custom spellbook.  These advanced spellbooks have     |
        |  several extra features including:                         |
        |                                                            |
        |    1) Full spell lists for the profession                  |
        |       the book is made for.                                |
        |    2) The capacity to write small notes on                 |
        |       each individual spell's page.                        |
        |    3) Personalized with your name.                         |
        |    4) Upgradeable with various accessories                 |
        |       sold elsewhere in the shop.                          |
        |                                                            |
        |  To purchase one of the simplistic spellbooks, simply BUY  |
        |  one of the ones off the shelf.  Make sure to GET it first |
        |  to be sure it's the one you want.  If you would like to   |
        |  create a custom spellbook, go through the white portal.   |
        |                                                            |
        |  WARNING: Spellbooks may be damaged if stored improperly.  |
        |  You may wish to purchase a spellbook case before you      |
        |  actually make your purchase.  To purchase one, return to  |
        |  the entryway of the shop and manipulate the orb until you |
        |  come across the Receptacles Chamber.                      |
