I hope the punchline wasn't too... forced.

I like how that spellbook is probably a spellbook of force bolt. The punchline would have been better without the ellipsis, though... or so I think.

Nah, it's a spellbook of wizard lock, as are all light brown spellbooks.

Newtons are pretty wimpy; they have 9000x less force in them than the old tons.

I want to give this double E because I spat on my screen at the puns.

The appearance of wizard lock and force bolt (and all other spellbooks, potions, cloaks, boots, etc.) is randomized each game, so every game has different appearances.

#5: That's an ongoing joke on this site based on that you can drop a brown spellbook in a doorway and it'll look like a door, so it's "wizard locking".

The footnote made this complete. E
