They say the pen is mightier than the sword.

Ability Type: Ex

Prerequisites: Rogue 11, Minor Magic (Talent)

Benefit: A rogue with this talent may read a scroll as an attack action during combat, and they do not provoke attacks of opportunity when doing so.

In addition, the rogue decreases their chance of arcane spell failure when activating a scroll while wearing armor by 20%.

Furthermore, the rogue with this talent increases the effective caster level and save DC's of any spell they cast from a scroll by +1.

The rogue must still succeed on a Use Magic Device check to successfully read the scroll, of course.

Finally, the rogue with this talent reduces their Arcane Spell Failure chance (from wearing armor or a shield) by 5%, as long as they are proficient with the armor and/or shield in question. This stacks with any other reductions to Arcane Spell Failure they may gain from other sources (such as from certain Dweomermetals), including further reductions from other Rogue Talents.
