Books (Oblivion)

For other uses, see Books.

Books are one of several items found and purchased in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion.

CharacteristicsEdit

There are over a hundred books in Oblivion, and when first opened, some will grant either a quest, a level in a certain skill, teach a spell, or add a new location to the map. Other books vary from simple stories, purely for the player's amusement, to journals that assist in quests and lore that helps to become familiar with the culture and history of Tamriel. A few books educate about the nature of the Daedra. The lore books have no real in-game use, but can be sold to certain merchants for reasonable amounts of gold or put in bookcases for decoration.

Training booksEdit

• Skill Books: Opening the book for the first time increases a specific skill by one. Opening a different copy of the book will not yield another skill point.
• Spell Tomes: Opening the book gives the option to learn a spell (of matching book title) and destroy the book. (These are only available through the Spell Tomes DLC.)
