Spelling of "skullduggery" is inconsistent. Apparently "skulduggery" is an acceptable alternative according to Wiktionary. Your game uses "skullduggery" everywhere except in the description of Trickster's Bracers which says "+2 Skulduggery"

Skullduggery is alternative spelling of skulduggery, so it's valid. Same as magick/magic. But it will be stylistically nice if game uses only one spelling of this word.

Saint Gilhelm's dialogue: "...small book that he is clutching in is withered hands..." - "is" should read "his"

Saint Gilhelm's dialogue: "...open to the public: there works herein..." I think you mean "these" instead of "there"

In The War of Mercantilism book: "...if you are buying a sword, dont..." - missing an apostrophe in the word "don't"

Do you still like us to gather all these things, Basilisk Wrangler? It's all just typo stuff, and it seems to that a spelling corrector has been missed. maybe an idea to still do?
