A spell scroll bears the words of a single spell, written in a mystical cipher. If the spell is on your class’s spell list, you can read the scroll and cast its spell without providing any Material Components. Otherwise, the scroll is unintelligible. Casting the spell by reading the scroll requires the spell’s normal Casting Time. Once the spell is cast, the words on the scroll fade, and it crumbles to dust. If the casting is interrupted, the scroll is not lost.

If the spell is on your class’s spell list but of a higher level than you can normally cast, you must make an ability check using your Spellcasting Ability to determine whether you cast it successfully. The DC equals 10 + the spell’s level. On a failed check, the spell disappears from the scroll with no other Effect.

Rules

A Wizard spell on a spell scroll can be copied just as Spells in spellbooks can be copied. When a spell is copied from a spell scroll, the copier must succeed on an Intelligence (Arcana) check with a DC equal to 10 + the spell’s level. If the check succeeds, the spell is successfully copied. Whether the check succeeds or fails, the spell scroll is destroyed.

Dnd Dmg Spell Scroll Rules Worksheet

Digging through the DMG, the only info on spell scrolls is on pages 139 and 140 (and 140 is just the 'oops' chart.). basically, a scroll can let you cast the spell ONCE, then it is blank. OR you could scribe the spell into your book (if you use a book) and have it available to memorize regularly.
My question is, if player A casts the bless spell fro ma scroll, is she using her concentration slot to maintain it? There is nto a clear cut rule, and going from item descriptions i get two precedents:
1) The heroism potion gives bonus hit points AND acts as the bless spell - it specifically states it does NOT use concentration to maintain the bless effect.
2) Back to the scroll description - the spell on the scroll is for all intents and purposes the spell ready to cast - no material components are needed - those were used making the scroll, So reading the spell off the scroll is CASTING the spell, so it works mechanically like casting a spell from memory - you need to concentrate to maintain the effect.
As DM, i lean towards example 1, since those effects are specifically labeled as not needing concentration. But i worry that could lead to unforeseen consequences ™.
Any ideas, recommendations or experiences with this?
