Rich Apprentice Member # 6183	written Monday, August 8 2005 15:05 Profile #0 Anyone have any idea what the tome in the Nephilim fort at the very beginning of Avernum 2 does? It only says "Your head hurts, but you can't help but feel that the tome did something wonderful for you", and after a while of playing around with it, I can't figure out what it did.

I think this might be a cursed tome that drains your experience.

However well placed word, unlike a well placed sword, Can also have the power to heal. Posts: 2649 | Registered: Wednesday, October 3 2001 07:00

According to Shrodinger's faq ( http://www.geocities.com/zeviz1/ch1.html#nephil_fort ) it gives you Move Mountains spell.

Rich Apprentice Member # 6183	written Monday, August 8 2005 18:00 Profile #4 The Move Mountains spell is on a bookshelf on the opposite end of the Nephil fort, and it doesn't hide what it is. The mysterious tome we're talking about is something else entirely! The only effect I could figure out by looking at my stats is that it lowers your experience when you read it. If it has any other, benefitial effect, I can't figure out what it is. Posts: 5 | Registered: Sunday, August 7 2005 07:00
Zeviz Nuke and Pave Member # 24	written Monday, August 8 2005 18:34 Profile Homepage #5 Thanks for telling us. So it looks like my first answer was right after all. :) I remember seeing a cursed tome somewhere near the start of A2/E2.
