Novus 1st Edition

Scrolls are parchments that contain from 1 to 5 spells inscribed upon them. As each spell is cast from the scroll, it fades from the parchment. Any form of paper may be used in making a scroll, but it requires the use of magical inks and a Magecraft: Runes roll with a TN equal to the Casting TN of the spell +10. The magical inks required to inscribe a scroll cost a minimum of 500 gp for enough ink to inscribe 7 spells. The magical inks do not come in smaller amounts.

Deciphering a scroll requires a base Magecraft skill roll with a TN equal to 15 + the number of Spell Points used in normally casting the spell. If a scroll has multiple spells on it, each spell must be deciphered separately. Failure to decipher a spell means that the character cannot attempt to do so again until he gains more ranks in his base Magecraft skill.

Using a scroll requires that the character make a Magecraft skill roll, with the TN being equal to the Casting TN of the spell being read off of the scroll. Reading spells off of scrolls does not require the character to expend any Spell Points.

Scrolls normally sell for 100 gp per spell contained on the scroll. Rarer spells may go for more occasionally.
