No, I think that magic is made-up, and I think DnD is supposed to be fun, and I think that any game that teases you by telling you you can do something but then says, "Oops, not yet!" is not fun (or at least that portion of it is not fun).

Assuming Logan learns of this, he'll approach down the hall and stop at the last square of the hall, waiting for investigation of the chest.

I think this is all way to complicated, and doesn't matter. I mean, there's already the spellcraft check. Also, who cares if you learn a spell you can't cast? If that's your choice, you'll just hold onto the book/scroll until you can cast it.

EDITS! I think maybe I misremembered what we had done before? Deciphering a spell doesn't actually take any time. Only writing it in a book takes time. Even preparing from a borrowed book takes time. Huh... 1)We all agree here. 2)But see, it isn't just writing that we wait 3 days to tie...

"I suppose. Let's examine the last doorway to see where it leads before heading further this way."

Wizards are already hosed just because they need a spellbook. Clerics/Druids just get to know every spell for free. Sorcerers don't need a book. Even if it were to take the extra time, I still think one should be able to cast from a found book.

Oh, learning the spell follows the same rules as normal, too. Roll is the same, if you fail you can't try again until whenever it is, etc.

I believe the RAW is unworkable, and no wizards would ever learn any spells if this were the case. What I think we decided was something very close to: 1)Read magic as normal. 2)1 hour per spell level to learn a spell. 3)Once you know a spell, you can prepare it from a spellbook. 4)Copying a...

Hah! it takes you 4 years and 1 million gold to learn a spell from another person's book, and then you can't even cast it!

With a disgusted look on his face, Kushnak sputters, "I... the thought of slinking around down here again... but?" "Bah!" Almost sulking, he prepares for a day of boredom... Some time later he approaches Eskard and states, "Come on then, let's at least get our work in," whereupon he strikes a...

Kushnak looks between the others with confusion before stating, "We haven't had a lot of success staying in this hole. Now, not only have we killed everyone here, but the elevator is broken. Now, if Dourstone is really innocent in all of this, he'll be happy about it and leave well enough...

Logan approaches the room, stopping at the southern entrance to watch Angrod go to work on the door.

Following closely again until they reach the door, Logan awaits another report back.

Kushnak watches Eskard fumble for his words with a smirk before adding, "It is nighttime, in fact. We should be able to leave shortly after sunrise, perhaps it will still be early enough that we will not be noticed. I do think we should take whatever precautions we can to get out alive...

Kushnak thinks for a moment and responds, "We should be able to fix the elevator. We'll need to wait for some time, however. Even so, I think it will be safer than attempting the climb." Mending will fix wooden objects with multiple breaks. If that's not enough, make whole will fix just...

Darting back into the room after hearing the commotion, Logan exclaims, "What happened?!"

"I don't even know if we have a chance of making a climb... we'll have a lot of opportunities to slip." Kushnak does another examination of the room, hoping without any real hope that there will be some other way back up.

"Egh?" mutters Logan, obviously now out of his element. "I'll keep an eye on the other doors while you look around."

"The Lord of Blades be praised! You managed it, Nethezar. Good work. Let's be rid of this thing and find a way out of here." Kushnak wipes himself off and, after requesting that Nethezar heal him once, heals himself the rest of the way. He takes a moment to look over the beast to make what...

"Kelanen help us..." Kushnak mumbles, raising himself up again. No PA this time. Maybe a crit would be nice? +10, 2d6+7
