Tome of Tudogeni

The Tome of Tudogeni is a magical spell tome and phylactery of Wolf Mane Tudogeni, stolen 18 years before and used by Walker during the events of Campaign 3. 
==History==
=== Pre-Campaign 3 ===
The Tome was created by Rage and bestowed upon Tudogeni upon making a pact. It is unknown how long ago this occurred. Tudogeni would later store it in a laboratory in the northern glaciers of Wolf Clan territory.
Walker and Nuku, in search of an anti-petrification salve for Walker's brother Hekau, stumbled upon the Tome while looting the lab, prompting Walker to keep it for themself.
Walker practiced the dark arts within the Tome in secret. They were eventually discovered by Nuku who snitched on them to Mānea Uhane, which led to Mānea demanding the Tome to be handed over and Walker fleeing the Long Talon with their newfound familiar, Hikiki.
===Campaign 3===
Throughout Campaign 3, Walker would consult the Tome in secret though they would openly wear it on their hip. Before Cori joined the party, Walker was the party's de facto healer which they'd do through the necromancy spells and curses they learned through the Tome like siphon ichor, vampiric touch, and wither and bloom.
==== Smothering the Flame ====
After winning the Marionette's award in the Starfall Theatre, Walker pulled out the Tome while the party rested. They continued to try to cast produce flame and over and over again until they finally cracked it and a small spark of flame appeared in their hand. They began playing with the flame and showed it off to the party. Zari saw its aura and explained that it was fighting with Walker's innate magic. Walker could only put out the fire with a ray of frost cantrip.
==== The Getaway ====
Walker would have a dream where they met Rage in a large valley littered with bodies slain in battle. They approached a large green flamed pyre and stuck their hand into it; however, when Rage asked them to make a deal and he'd grant them the ability to get vengeance on thosd that had wronged them, Walker pulled their hand free and awoke in a cold sweat.
==== Revelations ====
Walker approached Astryd Ansirah about the Tome, which had been smoking and slowly growing hotter. Astryd took the Tome outside after divining it's power and learning about its former owner. She impaled the book and began sundering it with a divine smite. The party protected her as smoke filled the yard and sword wraiths attacked her. They successfully fended off the wraiths and Astryd was able to destroy the phylactery before Tudogeni could reform to defend it.
