Manual of Siraq

Wondrous Item, very rare

This small book appears to be filled with script describing incorrectly how to fletch arrows. However, it’s actual, valuable, voluminous information cannot be read from the book, instead it is instantly imprinted into the mind of a character who activates the Manual of Siraq by taking three actions (in order) - 1) feeding an animal, 2) taking one step on firm ground and 3) holding the Manual of Siraq in front of themselves with both hands.

Once the Manual of Siraq is activated the activating character receives all knowledge currently held in the Manual of Siraq. The knowledge held in the Manual Siraq is hundreds of pages of detailed information on every race, creature and monster that Siraq (a powerful Druid who dedicated her life to capturing every detail (in script and drawings) of the races, creatures and monsters she encountered during her travels as well as all of the knowledge the Siraq’s Illuminated have continued to gather detailing the races, creatures and monsters they have encountered across every plane since Siraq’s Death).

Any player whose character has activated the Manual of Siraq may consult the Monster Manual during game play and immediately use the information found in the Monster Manual to interact with or combat a race, creature or monster they are confronted with during game play as though their character had all the knowledge within the Monster Manual as knowledge their character knows from its imprinting from the Manual of Siraq.

Activating the manual does not cause it to loses its magic.
