'''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]], [[Damage over Time|DoT]], [[Heal over time|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). <ref>http://www.1up.com/do/previewPage?pager.offset=2&cId=3163178</ref> Every player will get a new spell book page to which they can add six glyphs - currently, four major and two minor.<ref>http://www.eurogamer.net/article.php?article_id=138018&page=1</ref>

The cave entrance is right next to the [[Lightless Reaches]] that wraps around the [[Shimmering Expanse]].

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. <ref>http://pc.ign.com/articles/810/810723p2.html</ref>
