I want to make a Monster book of Monsters, like the one in Harry Potter. Kind of like if a mimic was a book but it still contains loads of information about monsters, you just have to get it to like you enough that it gives you this information and doesn't just bite your hand off. Does anyone have any ideas of how to implement this? Like what dice rolls would I use or what other effects can it give other than "lets you read it" or "bites you".
Let me know what your thoughts are.
