 Re: Spellbooks
To be fair, if it's possible to take away a wizard's spellbook, it should also be possible for them to back it up. After all, while a spellbook is the essential tool to the wizard's livelihood, it also probably represents much of their life's work. Having someone say 'Hey, I'm just going to take this book from you and destroy it' is a lot different from 'Hey, I just broke your sword, guess you have to go and buy a new one.' Clerics can buy another holy symbol, thieves can buy more tools, and bards can buy new instruments, but a wizard's spellbook could well be considerably more expensive than any of these, if, say, it's filled with ninth level spell-equivilents.
Just my two cents. |
