># Tome of Trials >At the beginning of any combat or at the beginning of any dungeon or area of challenge you may consult the [[Tome of Trials]], if you do you increase the difficulty of those challenges and those rewards. > >There are different degrees that each trials offers and the [[Tome of Trials]] is completable. If you complete enough of the trials in the tome you can unlock it fully, and the reward at the end of this is official indoctrination in the [[Talodonic Order]]. This is only available for a character capable of casting arcane spells. > >The [[Tome of Trials]] has a cooldown period after you use it one something that if you do not complete it, it is counted as a failure. The book is sentient enough to know if you are actively atempting it. If you run then it will run itself out; however, if you complete the tome it opens up the [[Talidonic Tree of Magic]], plus other rewards. > >The tome requires 3-4 major accomplishments to complete. >[!Info]- Example >You are about to approch the vaulted spire. You can use the [[Tome of Trials]] before you enter the spire to affect the entire dungeon. That means it increases the effects across the board, the rewards, and also counts as progression in the tome. If you after doing that found an encounter and wished to use the [[Tome of Trials]] again, you could increase the difficulty of that encounter, but remember that encounter is in the dungeon already effected. So the effects stack on each other making it extra hard giving extra rewards.
