Riffle scroll free#
Activating a riffle scroll requires one free hand. Magical silence does not interfere with using a riffle scroll. Activating a riffle scroll provokes attacks of opportunity just like casting a spell. Riffle scrolls are treated exactly the same as scrolls for the purposes of deciphering the writing, activating the spell, and determining the effects (including the chances for mishaps), save for the fact that riffle scrolls do not require verbal components - they automatically function as if they were cast using the Silent Spell metamagic feat. Characters who cannot cast the spell contained in a riffle scroll must rely on Use Magic Device to activate the magic held within. When held between thumb and forefinger and riffled through in a quick manner, the motion of the pages turning activates the magic within, simultaneously completing casting of the spell and erasing the booklet.Ī riffle scroll uses spell completion as its activation type, just as do normal scrolls. Each riffle scroll is a thin booklet, similar in shape to a chapbook (but somewhat smaller), containing 25 to 50 pages of eldritch symbols. A riffle scroll is a wondrous item that holds the power of a single spell. The fact that the difference in method of activation is initially described would indicate that it takes precedence over the following statements otherwise there is no point to mentioning any difference in the first place.Ī riffle scroll is similar to a standard scroll, but it's methods of activation and shape are quite different. A riffle scroll uses the normal casting time for the inscribed spell, even if the user or creator is of a class that has increased casting times when using metamagic effects.
