From publisher blurb:
A class that draws inspiration from various forms and genres of media to present a pact magic class rooted in authors, archivists, and other individuals invested in the written word channeling the power of a patron through their work, and writing into existence the spells and supernatural effects they have at their disposal. It is an exhaustive list of resources that can be used to run the class, and its content provides a unique storytelling device that can be used to explore less traditional character types.
