'''Librarium's Data''': A Librarium Curator knows monsters as he knows many other items of study, understanding weaknesses that he can communicate to a party. The ability works somewhat similarly to an Archivist's Dark Knowledge, but with different specifics; neither can be used as supply for the other. | '''Librarium's Data''': A Librarium Curator knows monsters as he knows many other items of study, understanding weaknesses that he can communicate to a party.

:The Librarium Curator declares which Librarium's Data ability they are using, then makes a Knowledge check of a type apppropriate to the creature (DM's discretion, but usually Arcana relates to magical beasts, Dungeoneering to Abberrations, Religion to Undead, and The Planes to Outsiders and Elementals - adjudicate other types as you see fit). Doing so is a swift action, and doubles as a standard knowledge check for the creature, possibly revealing other information. The DC of the check is 15 - however, many Librarium's Data abilities benefit from attaining significantly higher results. Only one Librarium's Data ability may be used on any one creature per encounter. Effects normally last for one minute. | :The Librarium Curator declares which Librarium's Data ability they are using, then makes a Knowledge check of a type apppropriate to the creature (DM's discretion, but usually Arcana relates to magical beasts, Dungeoneering to Abberrations, Religion to Undead, and The Planes to Outsiders and Elementals - adjudicate other types as you see fit).
