This enchanted writing implement is of great use to a <wizard>
|or| illusionist attempting to enscribe a magickal spell scroll. It gives its
user a 10% bonus to the chance of successfully writing a spell onto a
scroll. The quill is only good for six uses (six spells), and loses its
magical property when ths sixth spell is finished. Each usage counts 
against the quill?s capacity, whether or not the spell in question was
successfully transferred to the scroll.

If the quill is used along with a special ink that is attuned to the
item, the chance of success in the preparation of a scroll spell is
increased by an additional 10%. The manufacture of this ink is a
costly and time-consuming process, taking at least a week and requiring
ingredients of at least 1,000 gp in value to make enough ink
to last for six usages. This special ink must be mixed with the ink
that a particular scroll normally requires. A bottle of this ink may be
found along with the quill, but the ink will never be discovered by
itself.
