Whether it's academia, common sense, or really niche topics, everybody loves learning new things. At first glance, this is a leather-bound book with an old bronze clasp gilded with metallic Celtic knots on it as well as along the corners of the book itself. It reads in calligraphic font "World Book of Weapons," with no mention of an author or anything of the sort. Once opened, this book will propel 1d6 of melee weapons from around the world in a 15-foot cone. Any creature within this cone must roll a DC17 Dexterity Saving Throw in order to take half damage, if failed they take full damage. Damage is calculated by rolling the necessary stats for each weapon with a +1 to damage. The player then must roll a d10 using the specified weapon chart in order to learn what weapons are being launched outward. The barrage of weapons doesn't stop until the book is sealed and clasped shut.
