Tips for Great Books
- Lock (🔒): Preserve a component. Locking "Author" locks the Author, Quirk, and Hook together. Locking any magic property locks the whole magic block.
- Reroll (↻): Change just one component.
- Story mode: Reveal details progressively to build suspense.
- Use the Magical Property dropdown to quickly add a layer of wonder.
- The Forbidden theme is great for creating dangerous plot hooks or cursed items.
- An author's Hook can often be more interesting than the book's contents.
