When Used

  • Without a Monster Manuel:

You drop Monster Manuel on the ground near your quest log. The book grows little stumpy arms and legs, and toddles over to the hollow other end of the quest log. He tunnels in and makes himself comfortable. "This'll do, amigo," he says from within, his voice echoing. "Find us some monsters, and I'll give you some fun facts, okay?"

(He is now accessible via the Monster Manuel tab of your Quest Log.)

  • Otherwise:

You drop Monster Manuel on the ground near your quest log. The book grows arms and legs and stumps off to the hollow other end of the log, only to come stomping right back. "There's already a piece of my soul in there, amigo," he says. "That's what you call one of those metaphysical dilemmas, okay?"
