Scrolls are printed materials with the magic of one or more spells written upon them. Vellum, paper, papyrus, parchment, and palimpsest are also common nouns for a scroll.

  • To prepare a spell from a scroll, invoke it.
  • To determine which spells are on the scroll, read it.
  • Both of these actions are subject to Arcane Symbols skill checks.
  • To determine the number of charges remaining, use the odeir'cos rune.

Sorcerers with knowledge of Scroll Infusion may unlock fresh (never invoked) scrolls, allowing more mana to be infused into them, thus increasing the charges. Each spell as well as the entire scroll itself will possess a finite mana capacity, which is tied to the value of the scroll.
