Can racial spells be purchased in scroll form?


Pathfinder Society


I just wanted to verify this before trying to do it in an actual PFS game.

I know that in Pathfinder Society "Alternate racial traits, racial archetypes, racial evolutions, racial feats, and racial spells are only available for characters of the associated race." This means that normally my Kitsune Sorcerer could not learn the Slyph spell windy escape.

However, "Racial equipment and magic items can be purchased and used by any race as long as the specific item permits it." I'm assuming that this means that I can buy a racial spell in scroll form since this is a magical item that can be used by any race, right? Or does a scroll with a racial spell not count for this?

I'll be completely honest: I'm asking this because I want to get a scroll of windy escape and then start using it via a Ring of Spell Knowledge and/or Mnemonic Vestment. The ability to burn a spell slot as an immediate action to negate sneak attacks and critical hits sounds handy ;)

My understanding is that you would have to satisfy the availability of the spell to get a spell completion item of it.

The answer is no.
See Mike Brock's previous decision HERE

The ruling is on scrolls, but pretty sure that translates to other spell items such as potions and wands.

The above sentence is talking about the specific pieces of equipment and magic items listed under each race in the book.


This one has already been clarified? Cool. That makes things simple, thanks!
