Inscription is the skill you need to learn to craft Scrolls in Gothic 1 Remake, and to join certain factions like the Fire Mages or the Water Mages, you need to have this skill unlocked. The problem is, learning Inscription cannot be done until a certain point in the story, so players have been looking for a trainer early on to no avail.
Here’s when and where you can learn inscription in Gothic 1 Remake, as well as your options for trainers, the cost of this skill, and whether it is worth learning or not.

How to Learn Inscription in Gothic 1 Remake
Inscription is the discipline that unlocks scribbling, the art of creating scrolls in Gothic 1 Remake. This skill is one of the most useful in the entire game, despite its pricey crafting cost, and the necessity of looking for Inscription Diagrams all over the Colony.
Players will be able to learn Inscription starting at Chapter 2, once they join the New Camp, the Swamp Camp, or the Old Camp. They can do so by finding one of the following Trainers:
- Torrez at Innos’s Chapel – Costs 10 LP and 100 Ores
- Baal Cadar at Swamp Camp temple – Costs 10 LP and 100 Ores
- Saturas at New Camp (you need to join the Mercenaries, then the Water Mages) – Costs 10 LP and 100 Ores
Creating a Scroll requires Blank Parchment and a series of materials extracted from monsters (so learning the Hunting Skills and reading the Beastiary of Khorinis Volumes 1 to 5 is a must).
To create a Scroll, approach a Lectern (they are often in the places where Mages are, or near the Gurus in the Swamp Camp), then interact with it as if it were a crafting station.

As players might have guessed, using Scrolls opens up a path to acquire magic spells even when not going Full-Mage. But they will still need to use Mana to cast the spell, so increasing your Maximum Mana is a must.
