Witch Familiar Spells Question


Rules Questions

Scarab Sages

Hello,

A friend and I were both running witches in a game, and I would like to learn a spell from his familiar. Can I learn a patron spell from his familiar? The spell is not normally on the witch list, but he has it because of his patron, and the same for mine. Maybe I overlooked a rule for this somewhere?

Who are you? Are you a wizard? If so, the witch's familiar has nothing to teach you.

Are you a witch? You can only learn a patron spell from the familiar if it is a spell that would normally be on the witch's spell list if she did not have that patron. If the spell is exclusive to the patron, you're out of luck.

As I said above we are BOTH witches. Basiccly I wanted to learn his patron spell and teach him mine...


A patron spell that's on your list? Fine. A patron spell that is not on your list? Sorry, you're out of luck.

Hi emontague,

I believe that your witch can learn only other witch spells which show up on your witch spell list. Patron spells are usually unique spells much in the same way as clerics who gain spells from their domain slots. You could invest into UMD which is a class skill for a witch and cast such spells from scrolls and wands, but outside that, like Baha-who said, you are out of luck.
