In Game Books
« on: January 30, 2007, 11:40:00 AM »
I'm not too sure if this be possible or if it exists already, but I'd like to put some books on my bookshelves in my home...

but the thing is, I cannot get some, I thought I could buy a blank book and write things in it like in a parchment but there aren't blank book for sale.

Now I know there are some books in the world (I'm not speaking about the magical ones though), like those in The Great Library or I think from some drops or perhaps in some of this hidden chests. Would it be possible to have copies of some of them?

Or should I go to the Great Library with a scroll and copy the book myself? I wouldn't mind doing it really but it would be even more fun to have the possibility to do it with book looking... well book (scrolls).

What I'm after really are books on Dwarven History, Vorax, Dwarven places and town, Dwarven drinking song book, dwarven jokes, etc... Even a book with just a transcription of the Lore page about dwarves, Vorax... would be great. And I know such books exists as I remember seeing them in the Great Library (Though they might be unique exemplars.)

I am writing what I hope to be a book eventually with a character of mine. It would take some intervention. The biggest problem with this, I would think, is that there has to be a limit to the number of characters a description can have. With that said, I think it would be more reasonable to have book-shaped containers - objects that look like a book, but are actally containers. You could put several pieces of parchment into them.

That is, if 10000 characters is indeed the limit. I'm not sure.

The idea of the book-like containers is pretty sweet :p

Here's an even better idea: Make a Parchment Folder-like thingy that was equippable like the fashion-accessory Books we've got now.

Then make it nameable.
