@ReeceyB
Thanks for letting me know, I'll look into it

Using 1.6 for some reason these books refuse to go into bookcases no matter what.

Thanks for 1.6. Never saw them in caravans myself, very rare. The best way to find them is to use "What's for sale?" mod and check settlements items.

Fut its literally base DLC abilitys when a anomaly wriedo wanderer spawns trys to join your colony this person spawns with these abilitys by default all this does is so you can make normies weird to.

ive been subscribed to this mod since december last year, and to be honest, ive yet to see one...

hi there, any word on if this is still functional? haven't been seeing it pop up at all; not sure if due to some incompatibility or just deprecated

Any chance you can put in a description? I for one am too lazy to first download a mod, start up a game, and then check for balance...

Banger of a mod

please add optional drawbacks !!

darkhold?

Chance for horrible side effects would be cool.

I love how simple and lightweight this is. Great mod.

i played a whole like 80 hour game and won the game without seeing a single grimoire lol

ADD A MENTAL BREAK WHEN LEARNING THE SKILL AND I'LL DOWNLOAD

hey bob

Oh hey, someone bob-posted. Haven't seen that in a while.

As someone who's played a few hundred hours and almost never encountered the power this works great as is for experiencing content otherwise missed.

Do the powers themselves not innately have drawbacks from Vanilla Anomaly? Unnatural healing for instance already has a chance to exploding body parts into flesh tentacles.

Also, obligatory "If you thinks its op, don't use it"?

would, but seems op without drawbacks

oh man i thought this was overall a book for psycasting sadge

this would be cool if it caused a headiff when u use it similar to "stoned on smokeleaf", to put an example, allowing to use the powers for the duration causing adictions and chances of random mental breaks, and now that i think about it this way the grimoires could be clasified as anomalys as the pawns dont get the powers but borrow them from the grimoire instead

maybe add a config option to enable drawbacks or so?

drawbacks would be thematically sick

can you make this able to be put on a bookcase lol

@Luminous Dark That's a great idea

Toggle would be cool. Maybe a chance to start bleeding from the brain with 5% chance or smth.

@Key WiteWolf you right actually but options is sometimes uneasy to make, so it's in author's hands

Awesome mod!

Considering the split in the comments with a lot of people requesting negative effects, and some requesting none, seems the solution would be making it optional. Something users can toggle in mod settings. I think the high risk high reward thing is nice, but there's some runs I would want it and others I would not, depending on what other mods I am running/challenges I have built into the run.

+1 for keep it this way please

no drawbacks / negatives please. keep it this way.

So much folk here begging for negatives, but I'm like the way how it works now without all bad shit and gives way more flexible gameplay as well as not ruining relationships, makes another useless or half useless creep joiner and etc, just mine guy with same power from cool thing, and maybe all those negative beggers go and say ludeon to make any bioferite thing give you a 100% chance canser, or make idk, a planet killer start after you touching a monolith?

PLEASE let bad things potentially happen when someone reads it, would make this mod an honestly really friggen cool one.

a cool negative, would be they might suffer inhumanization

Actually thats a nice idea.

Like a chance to get some negative hediff - or traits like psychopath.

You should definitely make it so something bad happens when it's used, gain a negative trait, get older, get cancer, get infected with a metalhorror, initiate an anomaly event, lose some skill points, lose a limb or eyes, take 1 brain damage, get a mental break, start bleeding from everywhere, have multiple needs drop to zero, burst into flames, lose a passion. Preferably as many things as you can reasonably implement, then pick one (or more) at random.

@Morrneyo @Victor
They're rare, expensive and single use. I was originally considering adding a chance for bad things to happen when they're used, but I decided against it.

Is there no drawback? Seems kinda unbalanced

Pretty cool, I'll try them out.

I wonder what's a downside?

You just don't stop doing something supercool, so awesome!

Very cool addition brother!

Finally something that adds the ability to get them! Ty!

@DeroyDuck
Dark psychic powers function differently to actual psycasts, so I doubt there would be much interaction or incompatibility between the two.

Is this VPE compatible?

truly. your stuffs are great/

Never quit modding, please. Love your stuff. Thank you!

They can show up as rare quest rewards

Neat idea. How are these obtained?
