Name: Tome of flames
Description: A small dark book, containing approx. 50 withered pages.
Abilities: The tome of flames is a relativly common artifact primarily meant to ease the casting of pyromantic-natured magic, such as fireballs, meteors or firestorms. However, the tome is so potent not just with the knowledge of fire spells within, but with the fact that every page of every spell is magicly "loaded", which means reading from the tomb allows -any- reader to use the spell by reading the pages.
The more difficult the spell, the longer the time it takes to read, and a basic understanding of the book's language, ancient Arathi, is required.
History: The flame tomes are ancient devices used by some of the very first human mages in existance, which was in Stromgarde hundreds of years ago.
Although several exists(which is why they are classified as "relativly common"), many of them are lost due to it's age, and some of them have been withered and destroyed(they are written on ordinary paper that has been enchanted).
Wether any of these tomes are used regurly by any mage acadamies today is unknown, although at least one of these tomes are belived to exist in the library of (new)Dalaran.
((OOC: If this tome is ever ignited by fire, you will see a chain-reaction of unmatched proportions. Since -all- the spells in the book are rather poorly contained, and all fire in nature, the heat will cause the spells, ALL of them, to combust and activate one last time as the fire burns through pages. This will proove to be extremly destructive, and perhaps one of the book's greatest potential for evil-minded people, but it should be known this quality is ic:ly almost completly unknown. ))
