Tome of Curses I
The Tome of Curses I is a type of Ashen Tome in Sea of Thieves. All Ashen Tomes can be sold to the Bilge Rats at any Tavern for 10 Doubloons. Alternatively, they can be sold to the Reaper's Bones for Doubloons and Reputation instead. Selling the Tome of Curses 1 for the first time will unlock the Tome of Curses I Commendation and unlock the Hat of the Ashen Dragon for purchase from Outpost General Clothing Shops. Selling one of each Tome of Curses will reward Players with the Scholar of Curses Title and unlock the Cutlass of the Ashen Dragon for purchase at Outpost Weaponsmith's Shops.
Where to find
Like all Ashen Tomes, this Tome can be found from the following sources:
- Chance to find inside an unlocked Ashen Chest. Ashen Chests are unlocked with Ashen Keys.

Notes
- It is recommended to sell Ashen Tomes to the Reaper's Bones instead of the Bilge Rats, as they will offer increasing Doubloon, Reputation and Emissary Value multipliers for selling these items to The Servant of the Flame as Graded Reaper's Bones Emissaries. This bonus applies to Ashen Chests and everything else inside as well.
- All Commendations related to selling Ashen Tomes can also be earned by selling them to the Reaper's Bones.
- Picking up and placing an Ashen Tome on a Ship for the first time gives Emissary Grade Reputation to Trading Company Emissaries representing the Reaper's Bones.
- Ashen Tomes can be stored inside any Container Chests.
- Ashen Tomes give off a White Glint from a distance.
- Ashen Tomes can be caught with a Harpoon
- The Tomes of Curses presumably read, "Cursed/Ashen Chest" in Skeleton Glyphs.
