Scrolls - Sorcerers and Bards

[BV210]

This may be a very simple question, and I may have just completely missed the notation in the rules, but here goes.

Can a Sorcerer or a Bard create scrolls? I know there's the Scribe Scroll feat, but that seems to go against the "inherent ability" of the classes. I ask because of some of the cool sor/wiz and bard spells out there in the d20 world. How would my sorcerer or bard become aware of them? A wizard can find a spellbook on a vanquished foe and learn new spells, but how about the Sorcerer and Bard. Also, would the scrolls they produce differ from typical wizard scrolls? Would a bard's be more like a page of sheet music?

I know if anyone can answer this, it is my fellow ENWorlders.

Thanks!

Any spellcaster...

ANY spellcaster, including a paladin, assassin, or ranger...

ANY spellcaster can create scrolls if he has the "Scribe Scroll" feat.

Scroll scribing is an inherent part of the wizard class since that is how they learn new spells. That is why they get Scribe Scroll as a free feat. For all other spell casters, they have to go out of their way to learn how to do it. So they have to pay for the feat....

So yes...Sorcerers and Bards (and any other spell caster) can scribe a scroll, but they have to buy the feat first.

Simple enough. Thanks for the clarification.
