##/###: (color-#) Spell name

Physical Descriptions
L: This book is bound in dark but undyed leather, which is heavily scuffed. The corners are reinforced with brass insets, and the book has a leather strap which will fasten it shut. This strap is not a lock per se, but is not easily undone by someone unfamiliar with it (say, it takes 1d4 rounds to figure out if the person hasn't handled it before). The book contains 49 pages of spells, and 1 page of family history (L-1) listing his samurai ancestors and the manner in which each died. For those who performed exceptional deeds, a brief description of those deeds is included as well. (Hopefully this means the page is written in a cramped script.) Nomad is not mentioned himself.
R: This book is bound in red leather, into which is stitched the image of a ceremony which is vaguely familiar to Nomad. It involves a bunch of druids and a staff, and all of the Eternal party may get the eerie feeling that they were somehow involved. It is secured by means of a simple lock which Nomad has lost the key to, but which is easily picked with any toothpick-sized piece of metal or wood. The book contains 29 pages of spells, 21 pages blank.
B: This book is bound in leather which has been dyed to a light bluish tint. It has a matching blue leather case into which fits snugly. The case has brass grommets which may be secured by leather thongs or thin rope. The outside is unadorned. The book contains 37 pages of spells, 13 pages blank.
