Traits

Hidden in plain sight - Until opened, the book looks like any other wizards spellbook. It is made deliberately enticing so that foolish adventurers are more likely to open it and activate it.

Constant flight - The book is airborne and can not be grounded while it still has hit points.

Actions

Costless Spell - The book fires off some form of a damaging cantrip spell (Spells decided by the DM).

1 of 3 - The book fires one of its three higher cost spells. It can only fire three each day (Spells decided by the DM).

Paper cut - The pages encircling the book fire out at a target (Ranged Melee attack). Should the attack succeed, the target takes 1d8 slicing damage +4.

Description

Keeper of secrets - The book is tasked with protecting arcane knowledge, including itself. It attacks aggressively and destructively, preferring to destroy everything around it than allowing the knowledge it was tasked to protect to fall into the wrong hands.
