With the rolls of a few d12 dice, instantly create a book title and description! Create an entire mage's bookshelf in moments or use one of our quick lists for instant results! The pages that follow include several charts that allow you to determine a book's basic title, customize the title with names, places, etc., describe the book's size and condition, and note special features of the book. The chart results may be used verbatim but they will be best if customized for your game world by replacing names of cities, important people, etc. Further, variations of the results can be made to inspire even more books!
