[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 9334953, member: 29398"] Agreed. I don't bring new spells in very often, but when I do my rule of thumb for arcane spells is that the write-up doesn't go online until a character either gets the spell into their book, or casts it from a scroll, or otherwise learns enough about it that its details are known info. Just having it cast at you isn't enough to get the full write-up, though observant characters might be able to narrow down some basics such as casting time, range, duration (if any), and so forth. The (all too rare!) obvious exception to this are spells actually designed and developed by PCs, the write-ups for which go online when the PC either starts using the new spell in play or "releases" the spell to others by selling it to a guild, letting others copy it, or whatever.. The write-ups for any new Cleric spells go online right away, as all Clerics of the same type generally get the same spells. [/QUOTE]
