Note: the following uses FOLIO as a place holder for whatever noun a scroll folio goes by, be it folio, book, binder, tome, or otherwise.

Description

Introduced at Guildfest 423, scroll folios allow users to scribe (PUSH MY FOLIO WITH MY SCROLL) multiple copies of a number of different spell scrolls into them for organized compact retention. The scroll being scribed is destroyed in the proccess. Each copy can later be retrieved for use by scribing it onto a new scroll (PULL MY FOLIO). This removes one copy of whatever spell the folio is turned to from the folio and generates a new spell scroll on the type of PAPER the scroll folio uses. Some scroll folios allow for paper customization. To change the type of paper that a custom-paper scroll folio uses just PUSH MY FOLIO WITH MY PAPER when holding a different type of paper.

Capacity

Different scroll folios have different capacities. Standard scroll folios have 20 spell sections and allow for 10 copies of each. STUDYing your FOLIO will reveal its capacity as well as whether or not it allows for paper customization. FLIPing your FOLIO will reveal the number of spell sections it has (as it lists them) but not the number of copies it allows of each.

  • PUSH TOME WITH [duplicate] SCROLL: Flipping through the tome, you find room in a matching section, and copy in the spell. Your scroll crumbles to dust afterward.
