[QUOTE="Riley37, post: 6539696, member: 6786839"] My GM has the house rule that spell scrolls are written in either arcane or divine format. Thus, if a scroll of Detect Magic was written in Arcane format, then anyone with levels in Bard, Sorceror, Warlock, Wizard, Ranger, Eldritch Knight, or Arcane Trickster can use that scroll. If a scroll of Detect Magic was written in Divine format, then a Cleric, Druid or Paladin can use that scroll. My Bard PC took a level in Druid, and can thus use either category of scroll. When the gods created the world, were they using arcane or divine magic? I think that magic is not *inherently* divided into arcane and divine; those are two of the possible approaches which mortals use to *understand* magic. Mortals also divide foodcrafting into "cooking" and "baking", though the difference isn't inherent to the food nor the oven. Mortals categorize each other as nobles or commoners, they categorize words as prose or poetry... [/QUOTE]
