Illuminated god books are the upgraded version of the god books from Horror from the Deep. Players can make these after completion of the One Piercing Note quest if they have 60 Prayer and 60 Crafting (boosts can be used). The first time each type of book is crafted, 10,000 prayer and crafting experience is given to the player.

The look of the book will also change if it is illuminated, and making an illuminated book does not destroy the original. Players can own more than one copy of the same illuminated god book at once. Once an illuminated book is made, the original can be discarded, as the illuminated book may be used to create more.

Creating an illuminated god book

Making an illuminated god book requires the completion of One Piercing Note as well as 60 prayer and crafting. To make an illuminated god book, use a completed prayer book on the 'Book-making table' in the room most south of Abbess Benita.

Each of the 4 steps in copying the book requires 200-250 prayer points, with each successive step requiring fewer prayer points. Therefore, having 80 prayer makes the process of creating illuminated god books faster and easier. The steps must be done in the order listed otherwise the work is ruined and the player must start from the beginning. The steps are:

  1. Copy text,
  2. Embellish initial capitals
  3. Add colour
  4. Add gold leaf.

If player runs out of prayer points required to finish a step, there is an altar in the oratory at the east end of the abbey to recharge prayer. This allows the player to make multiple books without having to leave the abbey. It is possible to do the last step without having 200 prayer points remaining (for example, if a player has 71 prayer and has 110 prayer points remaining at the last step, he/she will still be able to complete the book). Overall, if a prayer renewal potion is used, you can keep creating "sections" of the book each time your prayer points reach 210.

  • You gain 10,000 Prayer XP and 10,000 Crafting XP.
  • You take the completed book.

Messages if book-making out of order or repeating step

  • You begin copying but realise that you have already copied the text. You spoil the copy and will need to start again.
  • You put the initial capitals in the wrong places, ruining the manuscript.
  • You put colour in the wrong place, ruining the manuscript.
  • You put gold leaf in the wrong place, ruining the manuscript.

Message if using book when another book previously started

  • You already have an unfinished manuscript on the stand.

  • You need to use a completed prayer book on the stand to begin copying.

Message if '1 Copy Text' with no or not enough prayer points

  • Your mind wanders and you make a mistake copying the text. You will need to start again.

Trivia

  • The God books are written by the followers of the gods, and aren't official dictates by the gods themselves. This makes them inaccurate with some truth.[1]
  • If you own a house that has a bookcase, you can retrieve a illuminated god book from there.
