| + | ====Scroll Scribing==== | ||
| + | Characters with the Arcana skill can create spell scrolls out of spells they know, and can even collaborate on spells above their level provided they are supervised by at least one person who knows it. | ||
| + | |||
| + | On the first day of creating a spell scroll, materials are consumed. Any material components of the spell (whether they are normally consumed or not) as well as a spellcasting focus worth 5gp must be offered in order to begin. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The runes of spell scrolls must be inscribed with gold-imbued magical ink. Anyone with the Arcana skill can create this ink from gold and mundane ink as part of the scroll scribing process. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The total cost of this ink is equal to the spell' | ||
| + | |||
| + | ^Spell Level ^ Cost ^ Work Days ^ | ||
| + | | 1 | 1gp | 1 | | ||
| + | | 2 | 8gp | 4 | | ||
| + | | 3 | 81gp | 9 | | ||
| + | | 4 | 256gp | 16 | | ||
| + | | 5 | 625gp | 25 | | ||

| + | | 20 | 160,000gp | 400 | | ||
| + | |||
| + | High-level spell scrolls are rarely crafted alone. When working with assistants, each assistant reduces the work time according to their own spellcasting ability. Divide the spell' | ||
| + | |||
| + | For example: when crafting 4th level spells, 16 days must be worked. An assistant capable of 1st level spells could contribute one workday in four days of assistance. An assistant with a second level slot could work twice as fast, and contribute one day for every two days. | ||
| + | |||
| + | 32 casters with level 2 slots could create a 4th level scroll in one day, under proper supervision. | ||
| + | |||
| + | ====Spell Scrolls==== | ||
| + | Anyone trained in Arcana or with the Use Magic Device feature may attempt to cast the spell stored in a spell scroll. Casting this way ignores material components, but other requirements (verbal, somatic, casting time) are as normal. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If the spell is on your class list and of a level you could cast, no roll is necessary. | ||
| + | |||
| + | If the spell is of a level you can't cast normally or not on your class list, you must make an Arcana check with DC 10+ the spell' | ||
| + | |||
| + | Whether the spell succeeds or fails, the scroll is consumed. | ||

| When you cast an Evocation spell that affects other Creatures that you can see, you can choose a number of them equal to 1 + the spell’s level. **Until your next turn** the chosen Creatures automatically succeed on their Saving Throws against the spell, and they take no damage if they would normally take half damage on a successful save. | When you cast an Evocation spell that affects other Creatures that you can see, you can choose a number of them equal to 1 + the spell’s level. **Until your next turn** the chosen Creatures automatically succeed on their Saving Throws against the spell, and they take no damage if they would normally take half damage on a successful save. | ||
| + | ====Use Magic Device==== | ||
| + | //Source: Players' | ||
| + | |||
| + | You have learned enough about the workings of magic that you can improvise the use of items even when they are not intended for you. You ignore all class, race, and level requirements on the use of magic items. | ||
| + | |||
| + | **If using the device requires a check, you may choose to make a Charisma check and use the result -15 as your modifier rather than roll normally.** | ||
| + | For example: When using a 5th level Spell Scroll, you would need to make a DC15 Arcana check. A character with +5 Charisma and +0 Intelligence could roll a 20 on this Charisma check and then make the arcana check with a +10 modifier. | ||
