==Researching Spells==
===Step One: Research===
* Use the standard research rules per Unearthed Arcana.
* You need two pieces of useful lore per spell level (or one for a cantrip).  
* So a 3rd level spell would require six pieces of useful lore.
Spell research requires a minimum of one week per level of the spell being researched.  So a 3rd level spell requires at least three weeks of research.  This is only for the time duration - if you accumulate the necessary pieces of useful lore in less time, you do not need to make additional roles or spend more gold - just the minimum time requirement.
===Step Two: Development and Experimentation Costs===
* In addition to the 100gp minimum per week of research, you must spend an additional amount per week spent researching, developing, experimenting and notation (cantrips have no additional cost).
* Use this formula: spell level squared, then multiplied by 10 in gp.
** Example: So a 3rd level spell would cost 3x3x10=90gp on top of the minimum 100gp for a total of 190gp per research roll.
===Step Three: Scribing the final results into spellbook===
Once research and development is completed, pay the normal cost to scribe the finalized spell into your spell book (50gp per level of spell or 25gp for a cantrip).
==Using Spell Scrolls==
* '''Scenario A:''' If a scroll is on your spell list and of a level you can cast - you cast it. Yay. Good job.
* '''Scenario B:''' If a scroll is on your spell list, but of a higher level than you can cast - roll your spell ability vs. DC of 10+spell level.
** ''Pass'' - you cast it and the scroll goes poof.  Go you.
** ''Fail'' - you fail to cast it and the scroll still goes poof.  Now make an Int saving throw vs DC 10.
*** Pass - nothing else happens.  But you lost your scroll.
*** Fail - roll on the Scroll mishap table in the DMG.  You suck.  Haha.
* '''Scenario C:''' If a scroll is NOT on your spell list, or if you HAVE NO spell list, you can still try and use the scroll IF you can read Tianne.
** Same steps as above, but with Disadvantage on both your spell casting check and mishap save (use your primary spellcasting ability or Intelligence for non-spellcasters).  Good luck, don't suck, don't die.
