"One's power and vast potential contained within the pages of a book."

- Tagline

Grimoire Magic (魔道書の魔法, Madōsho no Mahō) is one of the various ancient forms of spellcasting used by mankind as means of understanding magic and ensuring their survival; though it fell into disuse over time with the evolution of magic, it's still upheld and used by various mages in the modern era.

As the name implies, it makes use of the infamous magic tool, the Grimoire — thus is naturally considered to be a form of Holder Magic; due to its age, predating nearly all forms of existing magic, it's considered to be an Ancient Spell. It's also a Fighting Style, as many utilize such powers as their main form of combat.

It's currently unknown how many Grimoire users there are in the world, but its noted that they're few in number; but this logic, this form of magic is not commonly seen — abandoned for those that are, as what old-fashioned would dub as: "sleek, newer, and more powerful".

Overview
"As one of the ancient forms of spellcasting, this magic is considered to be invaluable to the history of magic; through it, we're able to control the newfound powers that we've been granted to impose our own miracles and survive for long periods of time. Without it, it's impossible to understand the true essence of magic."

- Timaeus Houdini hinting the importance of this magic in relation to the history of spellcasting.







List of Known Stages
"The grimoires are signals of one's strength; they grow in power along with its owner. The only way for it to improve is for the owners to make an effort to become more power. If you look at it from another angle, it's a personification of one's effort and experience — something that stays with you and acts as living evidence one's hard work over their lifetime. Though it takes a while to understand one's grimoire, it's worth it; at the end of such an arduous road, lies unlimited power — something only an Archmage are able to obtain."

- One of the elderly wielders of this magics alluding to the hidden powers of the Grimoire when trained and mastered over the course of a person's lifetime.

Trivia

 * Sticking with the Middle Age theme seen in most games and other sources concerning the books, the spells will be in Latin.
 * This is mostly derived from the anime/manga series, Black Clover and Konjiki no Gash Bell! — two series which makes use of Grimoires as primary weapons/plot devices.
 * This magic is rather simplified for the author's sake, no longer wishing to make something over-the-top and complicated, like he did with many of his other magics. In fact, it's kept that way because of the way his Grimoire article is set up.
