* ''[[Dungeons & Dragons]]'' worlds bless dummies with the following literature:
** ''[[Forgotten Realms]]'' has something close - [[canon]]ically, [[Fictional Document|Volo's Guides]] are an awful mix of brilliant investigations and silly hearsay. The most infamous was "Volo's Guide to All Things Magical",<ref>[http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=13961 on Wizards' site], free</ref> the "second edition" of which claimed that v 1.0 contained a lot of [[The Anarchist Cookbook|recipes how to kill oneself in amusing ways]] - and so much of sensitive information that Volo hesitated to introduce himself in a hearing range of other wizards ever after, and Elminster had to personally hunt down and destroy every last copy.
** ''Arcana SRD'' from Infinite Dreamers cover art <ref>visible in full resolution if [http://enworld.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=18135 downloaded] (it's free)</ref> has a horned greenish lad reading ''"{{spoiler|13 Easy Steps To Overthrow Your Demonic Master}}"'', with a readable annotation traditional for this sort of literature on its back cover.
