Wizards Spellbook as Treasure for PCs

[OB1Sean]

Hi i have taken the jump into running 5e on FGU and after my first 3 games the program is amazing and we are learning so much.
What i am looking for is how to give a spell book they found to them in FGU is it just a hand out with the spells or can i link a list to a book and give them that just not sure how to do it.
Thanks for any and all help

Most of the commercial modules use it as an item. Some even make them magic items. That way it shows up in the player's inventory and they can look it over anytime they want or even sell it to a mage NPC. You can even link the spells within the formatted (description) area so the players can drag the link to the spell to their character sheet if they learn the learn or want a look over and see what the spell does.

Take a look at a magic spell scroll for how to link the spells.

I copy the spell book from the PHB, then link the spells like a scroll.

Open "Items" on the right navigation, search for book and find spell book. Drag/drop it into a new folder for custom items so it is now editable.
Rename it "treasure spell book"
Play with the price, weight, and rarity however you want, optionally add a description of the physical item.
Open "spells" on the right navigation, search for the spells you want.
Optionally, add level dividers or a table
Drag/drop them into the book's description while it is unlocked.

Comes out looking like this:38596
Most likely you want to not have it all stretched out like I do for the screenshot, but rather use scrolling. I just did it like this as a demo.
