[QUOTE="Loonook, post: 5888084, member: 1861"] Because per the requirement of inscribing a scroll or spell you actually have to inscribe it. A physical effect must be applied for 1 day/spell copied with the cost of 100 GP per page. As the item in question does not have a physical page to scribe onto (the spell sets the effect before you would have a chance to begin scribing)... It is impossible to do within the current rules. Whenever you 'copy' a spell that can be used to prepare spells you're paying that price again. And again. And again. And each spell will bring you closer to losing concentration... And breaking the spell. Once you pass out due to exhaustion, take damage from exhaustion, etc... Done. Oh, and depending on what you're copying? Have fun staying up for months or years preparing this spell. Slainte, -Loonook. Edit: There we go... knew there was some sort of device like it... Necklace of the Phantom Library (Eberron Explorer's Handbook, P. 152, [Corrected Costs p. 150.] Maxes out at 300 pages (top SL 7th) at 30,000 GP. Of course it can also be completely erased by a swift action of anyone who has a single level of Wizard. I think that it has the correct spells for what you need (Programmed Image is right, CL is high enough, rare Giant-related item usually found in ruins of giant mage's keeps)... And gives you a baseline of how far off you are. [/QUOTE]
