Spell Scrolls

Every one of the game's 389 spells can be had on a Spell Scroll. This page lists each spell's scroll by level: whose list it's on, who sells it and for how much, and every fixed place it's found. 94 are sold by a merchant and 9 lie somewhere in the world. Of the rest, 259 come only from random finds, and 32 cantrips only with a cheat code, since nothing random holds a cantrip.

Reading a scroll

• Right-click the scroll in the inventory and pick Cast. It works only if the spell is on the reader's class list, and needs no Material components.
• A spell above the level the reader can cast needs a spellcasting ability check, DC 10 + the spell's level. The scroll is used up either way.
• The scroll's own save DC and attack bonus are used, whoever reads it (the table below).
• A Wizard can copy a scroll's spell into their spellbook from the inventory: 2 hours and 50 gp per spell level, for a level they can prepare (How Magic Works).

The price is the guide price (Merchants explains it): a scroll in a merchant's magic stock costs exactly that, three at a time, while one on a merchant's own counter carries their markup. A friendly merchant or a won haggle takes a little off either.

Fixed finds and gifts: chests, hiding places, skill checks and people that hand you a particular scroll, listed under each spell below.

Random treasure: a place's containers roll random magic items the first time you come, for the level the region is built for, and some of those are spell scrolls. A random scroll holds any spell of a level its rarity allows: levels 2 and 3 for an uncommon one, 4 and 5 rare, 6 to 8 very rare, 9 legendary (party level 1–2: 100% uncommon; party level 3–4: 95% uncommon, 5% rare; party level 5–7: 75% uncommon, 25% rare; party level 8–10: 55% uncommon, 38% rare, 7% very rare; party level 11–20: 25% uncommon, 45% rare, 25% very rare, 5% legendary; Random Treasure).

Fight spoils: a won road fight, or a story fight whose foes carry treasure, leaves one find, and 3 finds in 10 are a scroll of a random spell. Its level is half the party's level, rounded up, from 1 to 6 (a road meeting with no fight: a third of the party's level, at least 1).

Scrolls of a random spell

These scrolls say only their level. Each becomes a scroll of one spell of that level when you get it, picked from the spells of the level and different in each playthrough.
