For the spell books of Skyrim, see Spell Tome (Skyrim).

Spell Tomes (DLC4) is the fourth official plugin for The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion. Created by Bethesda Softworks, the plug-in was released on September 1, 2006, and takes up 2.4 MB of harddrive space. The plug-in features hundreds of new spell-giving books, ranging from high to low levels. These new spells exceed the maximum magnitude of Oblivion 's vanilla spells, however, this plug-in aims to balance slightly detrimental effects with a lower Magicka cost. The added tomes are located in dungeons as loot.

Trivia

• There is only one guaranteed place to find a spell tome. Once the DLC is installed, a Conjurer carrying a spell tome will appear at Fort Cedrian. Once he spawns he will begin to look for the player. However, he does not re-spawn so he can not become a regular source for tomes.
