I'm not buying any more gear, and it looks like you have the initiative. Start whenever you're ready, I guess.

High Ref chilepepper
Hold the match for a second.
edit:
Spells Copied from Another’s Spellbook or a Scroll
A wizard can also add a spell to her book whenever she encounters one on a magic scroll or in another wizard’s spellbook. No matter what the spell’s source, the wizard must first decipher the magical writing (see Arcane Magical Writings, above). Next, she must spend a day studying the spell. At the end of the day, she must make a Spellcraft check (DC 15 + spell’s level). A wizard who has specialized in a school of spells gains a +2 bonus on the Spellcraft check if the new spell is from her specialty school. She cannot, however, learn any spells from her prohibited schools. If the check succeeds, the wizard understands the spell and can copy it into her spellbook (see Writing a New Spell into a Spellbook, below). The process leaves a spellbook that was copied from unharmed, but a spell successfully copied from a magic scroll disappears from the parchment.
If the check fails, the wizard cannot understand or copy the spell. She cannot attempt to learn or copy that spell again until she gains another rank in Spellcraft. A spell that was being copied from a scroll does not vanish from the scroll.Last edited by chilepepper; 2008-07-27 at 08:19 PM.

Re: Arena Tournament, Round 44: Snarl vs. Blue
Will wait for a high ref to tell if I really have to. Since people can preety much take 20 on handle animal checks to rear and train animals, and crafters can take 10. It wont make too much sense not to be able to learn a spell from a scroll provided you have enough time.
If yes, then roll:

Re: Arena Tournament, Round 44: Snarl vs. Blue
SpoilerMy raven can speak a language I know as a supernatural ability. I choose common. And he can cast spells from a scroll VIA UMD. Since he has a wisdom score of 14, he can cast up to level 4 divine spells as long as he can make the caster level check of 20+level. And he uses my UMD skill ranks.
And in case you say "but he has to decipher them first", he already did. With spellcraft (using my ranks) and take 20.**** Photobucket ; RIP avatars

SpoilerPlease provide the source you are using that states a Raven has the supernatural ability to speak a language you know. The SRD disagrees with you.
As for the scroll - I don't know if the raven can use UMD since it's a trained only skill. I know the section that says familiars use your ranks. I'll ask Kyeudo about that, because I'm really not sure.That part is okay.
Now, you said "caster level check of 20+level. That's not the rule, though you just may have misspoken. To be clear, the Raven makes a UMD check. The DC equals 20 + the caster level of the scroll.Last edited by chilepepper; 2008-08-02 at 02:30 PM.

Spoiler1 Players handbook, page 52, Familiars section, no 1 note:
A raven familiar can speak oce language of it's master's choice as a supernatural ability.
2 Well, since I got ranks, he has ranks. So it should qualify.
3 Yeah, misspoken.**** Photobucket ; RIP avatars

BlueSpoilerThank you for the clarification, everything checks out. No LoS. Also, please remember you familiar has average maneuverability. To stay above you, during your turn it'll have to fly in a 2x2 circle taking 35' of movement. It doesn't look like there's any cramped spots on this map, so it shouldn't be a problem, just be mindful of that.
