List post updated in connection with 5 new books getting merged: Ordolane's Bestiary vols. 17 and 9 (replacing How I Became a Monster 2-3), Inside Almalexia's Tongs (replacing How I Became a Monster 1), St. Rilms' Lesson (replacing The Slave Trade), A Million Eyed Insect Dreaming (replacing Dawn's Displacement, but I'll probably remove it from the gameworld and place it in a few select Telvannis cells).

The skies are clearing up. I'd still very much like to see a Handbook substitute, or one for the Noble Tricks. And what of the books that need modifications or corrections?

I'd like to mention that we don't really have any proper Imperial Cult texts except the faction introduction book, the one that tells you where to join. I believe anything from ritual procedures to invocations to prayers would possibly be a nice addition, but honestly it's really not my area of expertise. Something aimed at expanding their lore, that gives us insight in what it is they actually do in those chapels when we're not watching, may be useful.

Perhaps a book about Oracles using material from [url=http://tamriel-rebuilt.org/old_forum/viewtopic.php?t=24207]this thread[/url] as inspiration?

I was mostly thinking prayer books, the stuff that can be put on top of altars and recited from et cetera, but I suppose oracles are cool.
