The Grimoire of the Frozen Wastes is a tome in Dragon Age: Origins. It gives the reader +3 points to spend on attributes, but is rendered useless afterwards.

Acquisition

• The Grimoire comes with the Collector's Edition and Digital Deluxe Edition. It automatically appears in your inventory at the start of a new game.

Exploits

• The tome can be used multiple times. Use the tome, deactivate the content, reload the game, and re-save it. After that the content can be activated again to receive another tome. This process can be repeated to increase all attributes to 999 (however it would take approximately 2000 iterations to max everything out).

Notes

• The so-called "Frozen Wastes" match the description of the Sunless Lands–a frozen wasteland inhabited by the Agadi people, who are likely an offshoot of the Chasind. The main difference is that the Sunless Lands are located in the south Thedas, beyond the Korcari Wilds, whereas these Frozen Wastes are described to lie north of Orthland, which is an antiquated term for the Anderfels. This is possibly a geographical error–lands north of the Anderfels, such the Donarks jungle, fall inside warm climate zones. If the Frozen Wastes do lie in the north, it would be in a part of the world that has not otherwise been hinted to be populated, nor have any contact with denizens of Thedas. See Beyond Thedas for further context.

Trivia

• When used, the caption cites the Grimoire as a Tome of the Mortal Vessel.
• The Boots of the Frozen Wastes are also related to the barbarians of the Frozen Wastes.
