12-10-04, 09:27 PM I have thought of something interesting that I opions. Taking the the idea of putting spellbooks in dragonsharads like the spellshards and the crytal-shape melee weapons or the rules in Complete Arcane for altenative spellbooks, and combine. You shape the spellshards into a staff or melee weapons. Can this be done?

Probably, but I wouldn't. One good Sunder attempt and all your spells... :weep:
A better way to do it would be to make your spellshards more innocuous, like embedded in a book, hidden in your boot, or in a lantern.

Note that spellshards weigh a half a pound each. That's somewhat close to a fist sized amount of rock (unless spellshards are incredibly dense); so that's what you generally have to work with.
