[QUOTE="Storme, post: 4149040, member: 56172"] Tio further clarify: The class is not important, nor the ability score of the writer. I'll give you an example: A sorcerer (using charisma as the requistie ability) writes a Summon Monster Scroll: A wizard finds it. He must have the appropriate INTELLIGENCE Score (he's not a sorcerer and uses int) in order to cast it. A cleric finds it and cannot cast it at all because he doesn't have Summon Monster on his spell list, nor skills enabling him to use it. A rogue with a Use Magic Device skill finds it and successfully makes his skill check. He can now cast it even if he doesn't have the requisite ability score, or spell list (UMD rocks. I look at you strangley if you don't have it). As a result, its not important the specific class that wrote it or the specific ability score he used to write it. Its only important whether or not an individual person can use it and under what conditions. That pretty much covers it. [/QUOTE]
