Their appearance is a cross between a crocodile and a turtle.


== Drops ==
*0-2 {{Li|Book Wyrm Scale}}s (100% Chance)
*0-2 {{Li|Raw Book Wyrm}} (100% Chance)

'''Golden Book Wyrm:'''
* 0-2 {{Li|Golden Book Wyrm Scale}}s (100% Chance)
* 0-2 {{Li|Raw Book Wyrm}} (100% Chance)

== Behavior ==
* They retaliate by attacking as a group to one of their own being harmed
** Having enough damage to kill one in one hit negates this
* They make loud hissing sounds
* They can consume {{Li|Enchanted Book}}s to spit out new ones
* The book it spits out is random but affected by Enchanting Level and whether it is Golden {{See|#Properties}}

== Properties ==
Book Wyrms are a unique mob with a useful utility. They allow the player to recycle {{Li|Enchantment Book}}s into potentially more useful ones.

Using a {{Li|Book Wyrm Analyzer}} displays a Book Wyrm's stats and qualities:
*'''Digesting Time:''' How long -in ticks- it takes for it to digest one Digested Level, ranging from 255 to 1
*'''Digested Levels:''' How many levels in {{Li|Enchanted Book}}s the Book Wyrm has digested and has at its disposal. Every book has its own value, ranging from 0 to 30
*'''Enchanting Level: '''What level of books the Book Wyrm can produce, ranging from 0 to 30
*'''Mating Time: '''How long until it can mate. Mating has a 5min cooldown
** A newborn takes to mature 20min before it can mate
*'''Golden Status:''' If the Book Wyrm is golden, it will mention it having special hide

=== Golden Book Wyrm ===
'''Golden Book Wyrm''' is a rare variant with the added bonus of being able to spit out [http://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Mechanics/Enchanting#Treasure treasure enchants] such as [[Mending]].
They are a 1% chance from normal breeding or naturally spawning, a 4% Chance when one Golden Book Wyrm breeds with regular one, and a 10% chance when two Golden Book Wyrms breed.

== Spawning ==
* Book Wyrms spawn in groups in a [[Defiled Biome]] during chunk generation
* Naturally spawned Wyrms have Enchanting Levels between 3 and 6 and Digesting Times between 160 and 240 ticks {{See|#Properties}}

=== Breeding ===
* Book Wyrms can be bred with {{Li|Foul Candy}} and the [[In Love]] effect (e.g., {{Li|Love-Arrow}} or {{Li|Love-Arrow (AOE)}})
* The offspring's stats are dependent on its parents

== Tips ==
* [[Love-Arrow (AOE)]] and [[Switch-Bow]] can be used for easy mass breeding
* Diamond [[Battleaxe]] has enough base damage to reliably one hit a Wyrm without agroing others
