Spell Book (Bloodlines)

Spell Books are hidden items in Bloodlines. They are found inside breakable walls. Collecting a spell book will cause one of two different effects which happen at random; either the player will get thirty jewels or a third Coat of Arms power-up effect, powering up his main weapon to its fourth degree.

he Bloodlines booklet claims that the spell book could be either a "help or hindrance", but both effects seem to benefit the player regardless, so it's unknown what the manual writers had in mind when they described it as such.
