Book Learning
From Gothpoodle
Greater Gaffling, Artificial Spirit, Information Choir
Description
A book with a worn leather cover and yellowing pages, smelling off old libraries and dusty bookstores. It communicates via words on its pages, flipping through itself with each reply.
Storytelling Hints
Book Learning is bitter about the rise of information technology and hates computers more than anything. It is a staunch opponent of the Silicon Court and regularly tries to convince other followers of the Phoenix that it is a grave threat worth addressing. With the brewing war between San Francisco and San Jose, its words fall on friendlier ears than they once did. It has the ear of the city spirit and suggests that an idigam is behind the rise of the Internet.

Background
A spirit of books and, specifically, the things you can learn from books. It lurks in bookstores, libraries, and the homes of avid readers. It roams throughout the city but has a particular fondness for the Haight. It always ends up back in the neighborhood.
