The Spell must be one for which the Wizard has a spell slot, even if they got it by multiclassing (so a L4 Cleric / L1 Wizard can transcribe Level 3 spells); note that this will not work for [[Warlock]] spell slots as they are a unique incompatible type.

Subclasses
The Wizard subclasses, also known as Schools, are:

Class information
Attributes
- Hit points
- At level 1: 6 + modifier
- On level up: 4 + modifier
- Key Ability Scores

Prepared spells
For a list of spells available to the Wizard, see: List of Wizard spells.
- You may swap your Prepared Spells at any time while out of combat, but can only have a certain number of Spells prepared at a time. The Spells must be of a level for which you have Spell Slots.
Spell Scribing
- A Wizard who finds a Scroll for a Spell they do not know may permanently copy that Spell to their Spellbook at the cost of the scroll and 50gp per level of the Spell (Picture example). The Spell must be one for which the Wizard has a spell slot, even if they got it by multiclassing (so a L4 Cleric / L1 Wizard can transcribe Level 3 spells); note that this will not work for Warlock spell slots as they are a unique incompatible type. For information about how this interacts with multiclassing, class changes, and unobtainable scrolls, see the dedicated page for the feature.
