Slot:	Offhand Catalyst

Description:	Ever since the incident with the crazy cat lady, most libraries decided to lock the tome away. Wielding this tome as a catalyst in your offhand allows you to cast the spells written inside.
Source:	Locked Safes of Libraries

A Leather-bound tome with the silhouette of a cats head on it. Inside you can find detailed descriptions of the art of Nekomancy. It smells weirdly like fish. If you gently pet it, you can sometimes hear it purr.

Properties

When equipping this tome in the off hand in combination with a magic focus in the main, the wearer gains the ability to cast the following spells:

Grade	Name	Description	Casting time	Range	Duration	Focus	Voice	Meditate	Focusing	Heavy
1	Catcall	Every Cat within a 100 meter radius around the caster will be lured towards the caster. They will try to reach the caster if they can do so without getting themself in danger. If they have to leave the 100 meter radius to reach the caster, the luring will not be cancelled. Upcasting this spell will increase the range by 100 Meter per grade and the the duration by 5 Minutes per grade.	Spell-Action	100 Meter	10 Minutes	Yes	Yes	No	No	No
1	Catjouring	Conjours a real cat at a place the caster can see. The caster can define how the cat will look and how old it is. It is a real, physical cat complete with free will and the intelligence of the average cat of its age. To create the Soul of the cat, the caster must sacrifice part of his own soul. Casting this spell will apply a lasting debuff on the caster that will reduce all his Soul-Stats by 1. When all cats conjoured by this spell die, the debuff will dissappear. Upcasting this spell will summon one additional cat per spell grade, but will still only apply one level of debuff. Every cat summoned with one spell will share the same soul and share a practical hive mind telepathically. They will still be able to act independently. Casting this spell multiple times will cause multiple stacks of debuffs to apply to the caster, each debuff is linked to the cat/s it was summoned with.	Spell-Action	10 Meter	Indefinitely	Yes	Yes	No	No	No
1	Cattalk	Allows the caster to be able to communicate with cats for the duration of the spell	Spell-Action	Self	1 Hour	Yes	Yes	Yes	No	No

Possible Variations

Lesser Tomes

It is possible to find a copy of the Tome that does not contain all Spells, a relatively common Tome is one that specifically excludes the "Catjouring" spell, as that is the spell that the general public sees as "worrysome". Tomes that do not contain "Catjouring" have a Rarity of "Rare" only, and will always be "Epic" otherwise, no matter if it contains the other two spells or not.

Scrolls

Each spell can also individually found on Scrolls throughout the world. "Cattalk" is of "Common" Rarity, "Catcall" is of "Uncommon" Rarity and "Catjouring" is of "Rare" Rarity.

History

Originally created by researching summoning spells in general, one wizard had a especially particular interest in a certain animal and perfected the spells for summoning cats first before applying his research results to the spells of other animals. Unfortunately though, while testing the potency of his spells, he summoned so many cats that he never found any time (or energy) to actually finish the other spells, and so, what was originally intended to become the "Tome of Faunamancy", became only a "Tome of Nekomancy". His last words were "I have no regrets".

The creation of these spells were so intricate that no one has yet been able to finish his work, and unfortunately all his Knowledge went with conjouring the cats, which outlived him. That means even when asked during his lifetime, he was unable to teach anyone how to continue, as he himself had no clue anymore.
