Systematic Spell Research Volume Three: Quills
Each quill you use has a slightly different shape as well as treatments that will make them behave differently while you scribe your research. These subtle differences in the line of the writing imbue the power of the
| spell with a bent towards the profession that is first able to use the spell you are making.
If only one profession can use a spell, then the choice of which quill to use is easy, just choose the quill for the appropriate profession. If more than one profession
|
|
can use a spell, then choose the profession to which the spell would be lowest in the power scale, and they would be able to learn it before the others. If there continues to be more than one profession that attains the spell at the same power level, then there is a priority order. You should choose the quill
| appropriate to the arcane profession, over the divine profession, or the profession of others that mix combat with their spell casting. You will also choose the divine profession over professions that mix combat with their spell casting, as long as an arcane profession is not also the same power level.

|
Finally, if there continues to be a tie, such that multiple professions within the same class of professions attain the spell at the same power level, then use one of the quills that is of a more generic nature.
This method of making spells is difficult on the
| quills. The treatments will make the quills soft or brittle, and you will find that by the time you are done scribing any spell, the quill will be useless and you will have to discard it and make another quill for the next time. The process of making quills is fairly easy, so this should not
|
|
tax your abilities significantly. You make the quills by treating a normal quill with two quill treatments, and then cutting it to the appropriate shape.
I will close this volume with the treatments you will need for each professions quill.
