Scroll Making

With enough time and patience, a Spellcaster may transfer a known spell to a scroll, thus creating a spell scroll. Any character may use a spell scroll provided the scroll is of 3rd level of lower. Using a scroll does not use a spell slot and follows the normal rules, other than the above, from the DMG.

Resources: This downtime is only available for casters. Scribing any spell scroll requires a vial of fine ink (20gp) and a pen or quill. It additionally requires one sheet of parchment per spell copied. The time required is listed on the table below.

Proficiencies Required: Calligrapher's Tools grants advantage when rolling on the complications table.

Scribing a spell to a scroll takes the amount of time and money depending on the level of the spell as shown in the table below. Additionally, the scriber must have proficiency in the Arcana skill and must provide all the necessary components for the casting of the spell. A caster must know the spell they are scribing and must expend a spell slot to create the scroll. All material costs are consumed, if the spell requires that they are consumed, in the making of a spell scroll. For example a Scroll of Revivify requires diamonds worth 300gp and consumes the diamonds. In short; when creating a spell scroll the spell is 'cast' onto the scroll.

Scribing a spell scroll is a solitary task, unlikely to attract much attention. The complications that arise are more likely to involve the preparation needed for the activity. Every workweek spent scribing a spell scroll brings 10% chance of complications.
