Ashread

You sprinkle the ashes of a burnt book, scroll, vellum or other object that once contained writing or images onto a blank canvas. For the duration of the spell, the ashes magically shape themselves into a perfect copy of the text or images the burned object once contained.

If the burned object contained more than can be displayed by the canvas used by this spell, the ashes will mimic pages, turned with a gesture to reveal the next or previous page.

The ashes remain a powder and are vulnerable to the elements. Moisture or wind can disturb the spell, causing it to end prematurely.

If the burned writing was once magical, such as a spell scroll, ritual instructions or other form of arcane writing, roll an Arcana check of DC 10 + the burned spell's spell level. On a success, the ashes remember the magic, and can be used in the same way. On a failure, the magic is lost, and the writing mundane.

If cast at a higher level, you automatically succeed at the roll for any spell of equal or lower level.

When the spell ends, the canvas and ashes burn in a bright flash of heatless flame, leaving nothing behind.
