-Despite what the name may imply, scrolls are not necessarily made of paper or papyrus. Scrolls are single-use magical items which a spellcaster has imbued with a spell. You must possess the appropriate [[priority:magic|Caster Level]] to utilize a Scroll without a check. If you lack a Caster Level, you may substitute [[priority:prowess|]] for this purpose by making a [[priority:skills:use_magic_device|Use Magic Device]] check equal to 11 + the scroll's [[priority:magic:spells|Spell Tier]].+Despite what the name may imply, scrolls are not necessarily made of paper or papyrus.

However, a potion may be cheaper or more expensive if you deliberately seek out one with a lower or higher CL, respectively.
