Sure, though I don't know what's involved. 😅

[Rudolf]

1) Look at my spell book, see what you want.
2) make the ‘% to learn spell’ roll

I'll check Vedast's list of spells that qualify for my spell list, and see what I qualify to take, then roll. Thanks!

[VennDygrem]

I guess I'll roll checks to see if I can copy from Iodas's spellbook, the only two I can: Identify (his newest self-learned spell) and Decipher Languages (assuming he's succesfful learning from the scroll).

At Intelligence (17), Zalven's Magician's Chance to Learn a Spell is 85%.

You could also try the Terrify scroll. I can’t use it at all.

[VennDygrem]

That's another 250+ gp, and I've already only got so many spell slots, so I'm not sure.
