{{nihongo|'''Bookmasters'''|ブックマスター|Bukkumasutā}} are [[Emblem Heartless]] that appear in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''. They are close relatives to the spell-casting Heartless such as [[Crimson Jazz]]. Like their predecessors, Bookmasters first appear in [[Hollow Bastion]].
[[Image:Rune Master.png|left|Rune Master from Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+|150px]]
'''Bookmasters''' are enemies from ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.


Bookmasters wield a book called the [[Akashic Record]]. They have a small chance of dropping their books upon defeat, which [[Goofy]] can use as a [[shield]].
Replacing the [[Wizard]] enemy from the original game, Bookmasters are close relatives to the magic-using [[Heartless]] such as [[Crimson Jazz]].  Like their predecessor, Bookmasters first appear at the [[Radiant Garden]].  After the [[World that Never Was]] is revealed, Bookmasters may also be found in [[Space Paranoids]].
Bookmasters can use all forms of magic other than [[Gravity]], [[Reflect]], and [[Cure]]. They can also hit you with their book. This attack is hard to deflect.
There is a small chance that defeating a Bookmaster will reward [[Goofy]] with the [[Akashic Record]] weapon. A more powerful version of this Heartless, called '''Rune Master''', appears in the [[Cavern of Remembrance]] in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II: Final Mix+]]''.

==Journal Entry==
''A great mage who can handle all three types of elemental magic.''


==Design==
''It bears a striking resemblance to Red Nocturne, Blue Rhapsody, and Yellow Opera when changing stance for use of each magic. It is immune to all magic, and should be defeated immediately.''
A Bookmaster is a rather small Heartless that wears long robes that cover its feet. These robes are predominantly green, with a yellow collar, white highlights, and a blue bottom. It also wears a tall, cylindrical, green and white hat and what seem to be orange gloves. The only part of the Heartless not covered by clothing is its blue, spherical head and yellow, glowing eyes. It wields a book called the [[Akashic Record]] in battle.


In ''Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix'', a Bookmaster wears predominantly yellow robes with an orange collar and brown patterns decorating them. Its hat is yellow and brown, and it carries a differently-colored version of the Akashic Record.
==See Also==
*[[Rune Master]]
*[[Blue Rhapsody]]
*[[Crimson Jazz]]
*[[Emerald Blues]]
*[[Red Nocturne]]
*[[Silver Rock]]
*[[Spring Metal]]
*[[Yellow Opera]]


The Bookmaster's name is a reference to the spell book it carries and fights with, and its skill in using it.
==Trivia==
*The Bookmaster is reading the book the Japanese way, from right to left, if the Heartless symbol is the cover


==Strategy==
The Bookmaster is immune to all magic attacks excluding [[Reflect]] and [[Magnet]]. It attacks from a distance using a sequence of '''Fire''' or '''Blizzard''', then '''Thunder'''. Using Reflect or Guard to defend these attacks is a good strategy; if Sora has Reflega, it can take out several Bookmasters at once. If damaged, they will often counter by hitting Sora with their '''Book Strike''' attacks, which are hard to deflect. Their magic hits from quite a distance, so it is best to use physical attacks.
