B. Spells:
Characters can learn spells from everyone else except player specific, however they can not learn the expansions of each spell.

Magic damage:
The damages of both skills and magic are based off level so every level a spell gets stronger, to get base damage divide the base level by the base damage and increase the damage each level based off the one level increments hold half point damage till the next level (Example: Level 5 torch 100-110 fire damage plus weapon and variable, level 20 plus 30-40 fire damage for 4 rounds. So take torch divide the 100-110 by 5 equals 20-22, and the expansion 30-40 by 20 equals 1.5-2 so a level 23 version of the spell would be 460-506 and the expansion 34(.5)-46.
