Warning: This mod is unstable and not recommended for use in modpacks(for now).

For better working of the magic book and amulet mechanics use the Curios API mod. The books and amulets only work when equipped in the Curios slot.

Coming soon:

Becoming a Blood Mage:

Using a spellcasting table:

 1: Make sure the book has been crafted in the survival mode; if not  put it in the curios before placing it on the table.

2: Place it in the slot in the upper left corner of the solo slot, not in the nine together.

3: The book will change slots to the output slot of the table (the spells will disappear from the book and become books as explained in 

step 4, warning: it will only enter the output slot if the output and other slots in the GUI are empty, if one with an item it will not go)

4: Spells that were already in the book will appear in the nine slots together, changing them will move the book’s slot (inside the book will ignore non-spell items in the slots, and will only take the slots it accepts going from 1 (upper left) to 9 (lower right) if the book only has 3 slots it will pull the items from slots 1, 2, 3 and leave the other items in the slots (even if they are spells))

5: Press apply when changing the books slots for real if you remove the book before it will not take the spells and will remain empty(the spell items don’t disappear, they stay on the table)

Casting Spells:
1: The book must contain spells and be in the Curios slot.
2: Have the necessary blood level.
3: Slow method: Use the Z and X keys to change the spell slot and C to cast.
4: Fast method: Use the numeric keypad where each key activates the spell of the same number.
4: The spell enters a delay and cannot be used for a few ticks (it can last from seconds to minutes).
