SHAMANESS COSTUME
Wizards of the Turangi culture use special costumes instead of spellbooks. These costumes are made from leather and adorned with complex patterns of pieces of bones and shells. A hood with antlers or horns of some kind is also part of the costume.
   Rather than reading words on paper, a Turangi wizard wears the costume and chants and dances instead.
   A shamaness costume functions is exactly like a spellbook in the following ways:
   - It can contain a maximum of 100 spell levels of spells.
   - Adding a new spell takes 24 hours and requires 100 shamanistic gp per spell level. Spells gained from advancing a level requires shamanistic gp or extra time.
   - To decipher a spell from another wizard's shamaness costume, a character must make a Spellcraft check (DC 20 + the spell's level). This can be tried once per day. Read magic automatically deciphers a spell.
   A shamaness costume also works exactly like a leather armour, except for the lack of arcane spell failure chance:
