[QUOTE="Maxperson, post: 8935051, member: 23751"] Both as far as I know. The spells come from the gods. 5e PHB: "A cleric might learn formulaic prayers and ancient rites, but the ability to cast cleric spells relies on devotion and an intuitive sense of a deity's wishes." While a wizard might spend 10 bazillion gold on research and rare ingredients before possibly succeeding at a new spell, the cleric might spend 10 bazillion gold on rare incense to aid in meditative prayer and going though old tomes in the temple before possibly being granted a new spell by his god. Probably something similar to clerics. Probably closer to what the wizard does. Researching old books and lore on bard songs. They get their spells intuitively and are more limited in the number that they know. I would allow new spells to be gained, but perhaps after a time of reflection on who and what they are. Maybe there would be a gold cost for something. I don't know. I'm sure they can. This is a DM's call. Spells appear on multiple lists, so it's possible for sure. Whether a wizard could invent a wizard version of cure wounds or not is up to the DM, though. [/QUOTE]
