If the check succeeds, the character learns the new spell if her research produced a viable spell, for which your DM is the judge. The DM should not tell the player whether or not the spell is viable when research begins, however he should feel free to work with the player before the research to give him loose guidance on acceptable parameters. Remember that a spell should always follow the guidelines on page 36 to determine it's maximum damage dice.</blockquote>
