Inscription

The inscription is part of the class skill set of a Mage. With this, you can scribe scrolls that are used to level your magery later and while hunting.
Besides, Mage can scribe whole books depending on his skill level. Mage always uses less magery than required for scribing a scroll.
Note, that your Magery level remains the same when scribing scrolls from spellbook and improves your skill when scribing scrolls from other books.

How to use your skill

A Mage can scribe from Spell Book, Book of the Earth, The Holy Book, Codex Damnorum, and Book of Songs.
For inscription, it is required to have a tool, a book with the spells you’ve learned, and some amount of mana.

For inscription, you need Scribing Pen and Ink that can be bought from Scribe NPC or can be crafted with Tinkering skill.

For Inscription, you need books and empty scrolls, Scrolls with spells, and the original Spell Book. You can purchase these items from the descriptive items merchant and a Wizard.

Use the skill on a whole book, then on an empty one.
