The book is garbled?

Post by Deinarious »

Just curious, are the new books supposed to be garbled when I read them, or is it because I was playing a fairy? I read "Spinning and Weaving" and most of the words after page 1 were a bunch of garbled nonsense. Is this normal?

For someone who can barely read, yes.

So my fairy can barely read....Ookay I didn't know that...

-edit- So wait, characters have to learn how to read now? That'll make for interesting RP...

I had that from when my fairy was first created (mage skill set). Curious, is Intelligence the main stat for that?

How do I do that? I've run into the same problem, but I've yet to figure out how to correct or improve on it.

It takes time, but if you keep at it you will get better.

We are still going to convert the old book into a new system with new content.

If anyone wants to write a book, feel free to contact me.
