=== Spell levels ===
All spells have a level –  a measure of how powerful a spell is, as well as how difficult it is to cast it, and generally require the caster to expend a [[Spells#Spell slots|spell slot]] of sufficient level. Spells cast from scrolls {{em|do not}} rely on spell slots to be cast.

To cast a spell the caster must usually expend a [[Spells#Spell slots|spell slot]] of sufficient level. Spells cast from scrolls {{em|do not}} rely on spell slots to be cast, nor do most spells granted by magic items.


Level 0 spells are called ''cantrips'', and can always be cast at will, without expending a spell slot.
