	Spell scrolls are items found in the treasure system or sold in magic stores such as the ones in [[Crossing]], [[Ratha]], and [[Aesry]]. They contain a spell that may be learned either permanently ({{com\|study}}) or temporarily ({{com\|invoke}}). Scrolls from the treasure system are found in varying states of disrepair, with more decrepit scrolls being harder to learn. One's {{skill\|arcana}} affects the success of being able to read the scroll and {{tt\|INVOKE}}ing it. You generally need around 100 ranks in Arcana to be able to invoke a scroll, although boosts to Arcana ~~such as [[Constellation Jewelry]]~~ can aid in invoking.
