based on my readings of the DMG, PHB, and Tome and Blood, i have come to the conclusion that any spellcaster, either divine or arcane, can research a new spell, as long as they have at least 1 rank in spellcraft.
that being the case, say a paladin that can cast 1st level spells has 1 rank in spellcraft. can this paladin research spells and if so, what types of spells could this paladin theoretically create?
in another case, take the prestige class of the holy liberator, which has a much much smaller and specialized spell list than the paladin. what kinds of spells could the holy liberator create, since the spell list is so small and specialized.
i am more interested in what the holy liberator can create since that is the character i have. i included the paladin, since that core class is fairly similar to the holy liberator.
