[QUOTE="Pauper, post: 7037801, member: 17607"] That's because you're looking in the wrong document -- you want the [URL="http://www.dmsguild.com/product/199562/DD-Adventurers-League-FAQ?affiliate_id=925821"]FAQ[/URL]. As two characters belonging to the same player cannot legally participate in the same adventure ("Players may only play one character at a time and they may only play their own characters."), you cannot trade spells between two of your own characters, at least until this downtime activity is expanded to allow it. Edit: After reviewing the rules again, I'm not sure why the FAQ mandates that the downtime activity must be performed in the presence of a DM, unless it's merely to enforce the 'both characters playing the same adventure at the same table' aspect of the rule. There is no check for copying spells from someone else's spellbook to yours in 5E -- the FAQ writer may have been confused with the rule for learning spells from other spellbooks in 3E. There is a check for copying a spell from a scroll into a spellbook (see the DMG under 'Spell Scroll'), but this is not a situation that requires the use of this downtime activity, as consumable items can't be traded, and the downtime activity specifies that it only allows access to 'spellbooks'. -- Pauper [/QUOTE]
