## Enchanted Items
Effect Level 12
Bookcase
Effect Details: Preserve Books: ReAq(An, He)12 (Base 5, +1 Touch, +6 Constant)
The effect is intended to protect the contents of the bookcase from insects, fungus and damp. I have based this on ReAq5 'ward against mundane water'.
## Notes
The aura fills the cavern but does not extend any further. Altering the cavern extent would disrupt the aura. It has been included as a free virtue as the lab site is outside of the normal covenant boundary. The Covenant aura does not add to this.
Due to the flaws, most laboratory activities will be penalised by the negative General Quality score. However, most of the flaws can be removed with some effort.
When removing a Minor or Major Flaw, the magus needs to have sufficient free points of space, either by first removing an equal Virtue, or by increasing the refinement score. Where possible and unless otherwise stated, removing a Free or Minor Flaw usually takes one season and removing a Major Flaw takes two seasons. This time is occupied with repairing or restoring the faulty component, but it can be combined with a season spent improving the Refinement.
The Subterranean flaw cannot be removed as to do so would disrupt the aura:
Features:
- A mansized wrought-iron cage with a latch, rather than a lock, in the center of the chamber.
- A man-sized wrought-iron cage with a latch, rather than a lock, in the center of the chamber.
- A pool fed by a spring, which feeds a stream that runs around the edge of the chamber. During the spring thaw, Aquam vis can be harvested from the pool - normally 5 pawns but this may vary if winter was especially harsh or soft.
