To represent this, some characters may purchase Incantation Scrolls. Incantation Scrolls cannot be duplicated on the same model and no two characters in your army can have the same combination of Incantation Scrolls:

• High Priests: May purchase up to three Incantation Scrolls.

• Mortuary Priests: May purchase up to two Incantation Scrolls.

• Necrotects & Arch Necrotects: May purchase up to one Incantation Scroll.

Performing An Incantation

Each Incantation Scroll contains a Bound spell. However, unlike most Bound spells, no Casting roll is made for an Incantation. Instead, when a character wishes to cast the Bound spell contained within an Incantation Scroll (or perform an Incantation) they must make a Leadership test (using their own Leadership):

• If this test is passed, the character is able to maintain their concentration amidst the tumult of battle and perform the Incantation. The Bound spell is cast at its given Casting Value.

• If this test is failed, the character's concentration falters and they are unable to perform the Incantation.

Dispelling An Incantation

Incantations can be dispelled just like any other spell. To dispel an Incantation, the result of the Dispel roll simply needs to be higher than the Incantation's given Casting Value.

Miscasts & Perfect Invocations

When performing an Incantation, there is no risk of a miscast or chance of a perfect invocation. When dispelling an Incantation, there is no risk of being outclassed in the art.

"Words Crumble Like Dust..."

The Bound spell contained within an Incantation Scroll can be performed only once, after which the scroll will crumble to dust, the power contained within it spent. However, if an attempt to perform an Incantation is unsuccessful, the Incantation has not been read to its end. In other words, the scroll does not crumble and the character may attempt to perform it again in a later turn.
