For all those people who are fed up of not being able to read scrolls while blinded or in complete darkness... OK, so just for me then... Please may I have braille as an extra language and have my scrolls scribed into it please? |

You heard me. Please? I have a feat that enables me to use touch for search checks (tactile trapsmith), so can I use touch to read as well? |

would you have to invent the braille language? mind you, I guess you could go for a large print embossing and feel that. hmmm, what about a sort of voice illusion with the spell instructions? A spell on tape in effect. |

Well there 'are' alternative mediums for scribing scrolls in either complete arcane or complete mage (I forget which) but braille (series of dots on page) requires inventing it. Of course, stone tablets with the spells chiseled onto them could be read by someone with sensitive fingers I suppose. (in before 'braille porn') |

What about a lost group of blind spell scribing Monks (not the class, the group of people who live in monasteries etc) who might want to use the spells they spend all day scribing to defend themselves from those who would raid their holy libraries of arcane and divine knowledge? I can think of a number of, admittedly strange and far fetched, reasons why brail or similar touched language be invented for spell scrolls. Why a player character spent time studying with these people could be interesting from a character background tho..? like others have said i haven’t seen any official rulings for brail, so it would be a house rule thing. Maybe it could be a country specific ruling for a particular background? |
