I >spouse to can use it. Please help You first need to assign the spell scroll to one of the numbered spell slots, just like you would do with a spell rune. Select the scroll in your inventory and thn press the Action key and the Forward/Up key at the same to assign it a slot. A number should appear over the scroll in your inventory indicating which slot it was assigned to. You'll need a free slot to do this, so if you've already assigned all 10 then you'll need unassign one of your runes or other scrolls first. After you've assigned the scroll to a slot exit your inventory and press the number key corresponding to the number the scroll was assigned to. Slot number 10 corresponds to the 0 key. Your character should change his stance and some sort of magical effect should appear indicating that the character is preparing to cast a spell. Finally to actually cast the spell press the Action key and Forward/Up key at the same time. While overall Gothic is a great game, unfortunately it has one of the worst user interfaces ever put into a game.
