Effect If your next action is to Cast a Spell that has the linguistic trait and that targets 1 creature, you're overtaken by Juubun's spirit, and the spoken elements of your spell become impressively poetic. If the target is an ally, your words inspire them and they gain 10 temporary Hit Points that last for 1 minute. If the targeted creature is an enemy and the spell requires a saving throw, and if the enemy fails its saving throw, they become Sickened 1 as a result of despair and sadness.

Traits
Spellbooks are useful tools for any magic user to write down incantations and runes of power, but where most spellbooks are nothing more than ink on parchment, grimoires have absorbed the magic of the spells within—magic that knowledgeable spellcasters can use to augment their spells.
Something with the magical trait is imbued with magical energies not tied to a specific tradition of magic. Some items or effects are closely tied to a particular tradition of magic. In these cases, the item has the arcane, divine, occult, or primal trait instead of the magical trait. Any of these traits indicate that the item is magical.
