- Were you looking for the type of armor augments known as Inscriptions or the class lore from the RPG Inscriber?
Inscription is a profession which will be introduced in the upcoming Wrath of the Lich King expansion. Inscription will allow players to augment the cooldown, damage, or mechanics (stun, knockback, DoT, HoT, etc.) of a spell. It will have two aspects: augmentation of abilities and spells with the creation of a new type of item ("scrolls", for example, from ink, paper, and other reagents — or some other item which has not yet been revealed).[1] Every player will get a new spell book page to which they can add six glyphs — currently, two major, two lesser, and two minor.[2]
A sub-skill called [Milling][3] will accompany Inscription that will produce reagents from herbs similar to how the 
[Prospecting] sub-skill of Jewelcrafting works.
Inscribing abilities for other characters will involve the creation of Inscription Scrolls which can be traded, bought, or sold at the auction house in the same manner as other items.[4]
Inscribers will also be able to create scrolls for enchanters to put their enchants on, this will enable enchanting scrolls to be traded, and sold on the auction house.[5]
Those who don't purchase the expansion will be able to use items created by an inscriber. All Burning Crusade players will be able to select Inscription as one of their two professions and level up to a skill level of 375 with it. Upon the release of Wrath of the Lich King, players who purchase and install the expansion will be able to continue leveling in Inscription and the other professions beyond 375.
Official examples
Glyph Interface
- Inscribers will create Glyphs that allow players to modify their spells and abilities.[6]
[Backstab] could be enhanced to crit more often.
[Shadow Bolt] could be enhanced to do additional damage.- [Frost Nova] could have larger range or longer duration.
- [Fireball] could be enhanced to also cause a knockback effect.
- "Demonic Runes inscription that will increase fire damage done by the Mage [Fireball] spell by 50 additional points."[7]
- Major glyphs will be effective in combat — adding damage over time or stun to a physical attack, for example — while minor glyphs will give convenient or cosmetic improvements, removing the need for some spell reagents.[8]
Other Beta Examples:
- Glyph of the Penguin (Mage) (Minor Glyph) - Empowers a Minor Glyph to cause your Polymorph: Sheep spell to turn the target into a baby penguin.[9]
- Glyph of Wild Endurance (Druid) (Minor Glyph) - Empowers a Minor Glyph to increase the duration of your [Mark of the Wild] and [Gift of the Wild] spells by 30 min.[10]
- Glyph of Natural Force (Druid) (Greater Glyph) - Empowers a Greater Glyph to avoid interruption caused by damage while casting your [Wrath] spells by 50%.[11]
Gathering Profession
As of the 
beta, Herbalism is the primary gathering profession for Inscription.[12]
Notes
- Glyphs can be sold at the Auction House.[13]
