Bearer casts spells as Wizard Champion (ie, magic level 2, 2 spell cards). See card for details of which spell cards he may choose.
Skaven Plague Monks only.
A character with the Liber Bubonicus has the abilities of a wizard but can still wear armour as normal - the book does not inhibit the character's ability to cast spells. Note that the Skaven special character Plaguelord Skrolk also uses this item. He is a lord of Clan Pestilens, the clan of the Plague Monks.
