Librams are ancient keepsakes that are left of the [[Highborne]] legacy. Those codex are filled with indechipherable and skittering runes that can only be read by very few lore masters in the world. At this time there are only two such known - Mathredis Firestar, a recluse and crankly elf that resides in the Burning Steppes, and Lorekeeper Lydros from the secret archives of [[Shen'dralar]] in Dire Maul.

For the paladin relic, see Libram (relic).

Librams are ancient keepsakes that are left of the Highborne legacy. Those codexes are filled with indecipherable and skittering runes that can only be read by very few loremasters in the world. At this time there are only two such known - Mathredis Firestar, a recluse and cranky elf that resides in the Burning Steppes, and Lorekeeper Lydros from the secret archives of Shen'dralar in Dire Maul.

Librams can be turned in to one of those NPCs (each one only accept some librams), along with some other ingredients for an Arcanum, a gem that allows you to apply an enchant to a Head or Leg item. Only one libram of each type can be carried at a time, though the quests can be repeated any number of times.
