Documancy

Documancy is the art of crafting books using magic. Documancy relies primarily on Void magic. 

Construction

A suitably magical book, and the appropriate Void MP are required. The words are spoken thus:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua. Egestas congue quisque egestas diam in arcu cursus euismod quis. Nascetur ridiculus mus mauris vitae ultricies leo integer. Lectus magna fringilla urna porttitor rhoncus dolor purus. In ornare quam viverra orci sagittis. Etiam sit amet nisl purus in mollis nunc. Ullamcorper morbi tincidunt ornare massa eget egestas. Nunc mi ipsum faucibus vitae aliquet nec. Habitasse platea dictumst vestibulum rhoncus est pellentesque. At consectetur lorem donec massa sapien faucibus et. Ullamcorper dignissim cras tincidunt lobortis. Vulputate eu scelerisque felis imperdiet proin fermentum. Feugiat scelerisque varius morbi enim nunc faucibus a pellentesque. Eget lorem dolor sed viverra ipsum nunc aliquet. Pellentesque diam volutpat commodo sed egestas. Duis at consectetur lorem donec massa sapien. Massa massa ultricies mi quis hendrerit dolor magna eget.

If there is any error in the spoken component, or the book is inadequate, the results are unpredictable - and often tragic.
Works of Greater Documancy tend to be very ornate, yet often technical, and are unpredictably interactive. They often pull the reader in to sub-levels, where treasure and monsters may ambush them. Books that may pull in the reader are dangerous, so they are found wrapped closed with chains.
Many are written with a storybook, Bestiary, or Codex feel, like Jack and the Beanstalk. Where player progress is marked, bookmarks are shown in the actual book. These serve as visual anchors, making it easy to click to them. They also act as physical anchors, since the player climbs back out of the book via that bookmark.

Implementation

We expect to use a templated system constructed upon  Ultra-Custom Animated Books with Localized Text and Journal/Scrapbook System to represent our special books, lore books, spells/skills books, and secret-level books. Early prototypes of interactive books in UE4 were generally successful.
