'''[[Scrolls]]''' are magical [[Consumables]] that allow characters to cast [[Spells]] without expending [[Spells#Spell Slots|Spell Slots]] or being a spellcasting class. Scrolls can be very useful in situations when you do not have any remaining Spell Slots, when you need to cast a Spell that you don't have prepared or when you do not have the required spellcaster in the party.

== How scrolls work ==
Scrolls in Baldur's Gate 3 follow different rules from the 5th Edition Dungeons & Dragons ruleset. Here are some key points of how scrolls work in BG3:
* You can cast any [[Spell]] with the appropriate scroll, even if the spell's level is higher than your highest-level spell slots.
* You can cast any [[Spell]] with the appropriate scroll, even if the spell's level is higher than your highest-level spell slots.
* Any class can cast any spell with the appropriate scroll, even if that class cannot normally cast spells.
* Any class can cast any spell with the appropriate scroll, even if that class cannot normally cast spells.
** However, conditions that prevent spellcasting, like [[Rage]] and [[Wild Shape]], still apply to scrolls.
** However, conditions that prevent spellcasting, like [[Rage]] and [[Wild Shape]], still apply to scrolls.
* [[Attack Roll]]s and the [[Difficulty Class]] of [[Saving Throw]]s from scrolls '''always''' benefit from your current [[Proficiency Bonus]] and your class's [[Spells#Spellcasting Ability Modifier|Spellcasting Ability Modifier]], even if your class cannot normally cast spells.
[[File:Scribe Spells Example.webp|thumb|Wizards can scribe Scrolls, adding spells to their spellbook]]
* Spell Scribing: A [[Wizard]] who finds a scroll for a spell they do not know may permanently copy that spell to their spellbook at the cost of 50gp per level of the spell. This also consumes the scroll.
* The {{Attack Roll}} and the [[Difficulty Class]] of the {{SavingThrow}} from scrolls '''always''' benefit from your current [[Proficiency Bonus]] and your class's [[Spells#Spellcasting Ability Modifier|Spellcasting Ability Modifier]], even if your class cannot normally cast spells. In case of [[multiclassing]], the spellcasting ability is determined by the class the character most recently took a first level in.
** This is reduced to 25gp per spell level for spells belonging to the same school as the Wizard's subclass ''(see [[Wizard#Level 2|Wizard]] for subclass options)''.
* {{SmallIcon|Spell Scribing Icon.webp}} '''Spell Scribing:''' A [[Wizard]] who finds a scroll for a spell they do not know may permanently copy that spell to their spellbook at the cost of {{gold|50}} per level of the spell. This also consumes the scroll.
*Some scrolls that are used to cast spells such as [[Eyebite]], spells that give the ability to choose different variants of the spell to cast, cannot be used out of the characters inventory and have to first be put on the character hotbar.
** Cost is reduced to {{gold|25}} per spell level for spells belonging to the same school as the Wizard's subclass ''(see [[Wizard#Level 2|Wizard]] for subclass options)''.
== List of Scrolls ==
** In the event of a class change, if the character is no longer a wizard but later becomes one again, spells learned with scrolls will still be memorized. At least one wizard level is required to access it.
** Scrolls can not be created (scribed from a wizards spellbook).
*Scrolls that are used to cast spells that offer different variants of the spell, such as selecting an element for [[Chromatic Orb]], cannot be used directly out of the character's inventory and must first be put on the character hotbar.
*Scrolls used in combat will not be consumed if successfully countered by an enemy's [[Counterspell]].
