Trivia

  • Balberith has the highest might of any tome from any of the five magic types in Radiant Dawn.
  • Balberith, along with all other obtainable dark tomes, are completely unusable on the first playthrough of the game as both playable dark magic users (Pelleas and Lehran) are not recruitable.
