I am in the process of making a 11th level gestalt Wizard//Archivist with the Item Familiar feat for his Spellbook/Prayerbook.

I am primarily concerned with running out of room in the book but any sort of useful enchantments would be... well... useful.

Any help would be nice.

A Blessed Book has 1000 pages, so that should hold you over. Alternately, you could have only your Wizard spells in there, and keep Archivist in a mundane book. Or both could be animate, and constantly bicker with each other.

And find a way to give it a laser beam of death, of course.

A Geometer from Complete Arcane? Allows you to use exactly 1 page for any spell, regardless of level. Also makes the spell harder to read for anyone else too. Combined with Flickerdart's suggestion of the 1k page book, if you ran out of pages, I'd be shocked(really, who needs 1k different spells?)

I had a wizard in a flying ship campaign with a blessed book that looked like this:

His spells looked a little like this:

Well, there IS Dragonstar, which has spellbook-PDAs and scrollware. It's actually pretty hilarious.

No, you would need to call it The Octavo, or have it bound in a cover of (or pages made from the pulp of) sapient pearwood.

But be warned an Octavo would only be able to hold 8 spells within its pages. :smallwink:

Make it able to cast Searing Light. Obviously.
