Harnessing the greatest form of human magick, language, Grimoires offer insights into the Spheres, teach esoteric skills, and spark inspirations that lead to greater illumination. Although “normal” books can furnish knowledge, inspiration and focus (see below), these magickal tomes allow a character to raise Abilities, Spheres, and Arete… presuming, of course, that the reader understands that tome in the first place. Holy Scriptures, Hermetic codices, Books of Shadows, and ineffable sutras often take the form of Grimoires.
