2 quick questions

I'm having some trouble with grimrock right now. The tutorial doesn't explain much in detail so I'm confused about 2 things. First, how do you use a mage? I have one mage in my party but when I right click his hands it gives me boxes with symbols and when I try anything it says spell fizzled. I have a scroll of fireball in his left hand but that doesn't do anything either. Second question, how do you revive a party member that died? I got trapped in a corner and half of my attacks kept missing -_-

You click on the runes that you want to use, and then on the cast magic spell in the lower right corner. But your mage needs to be skilled enough in the appropriate school(s) to cast the spell. For an example you need 2 points of fire magic to cast the most basic fire spell.
There are big blue floating stones scattered around the dungeon that can revive your party (one per level?). Remember that you can move your party members inside the party, by clicking and dragging, in case your front guys gets killed, and you need someone to stand in the front for attacks.
Also, it is important to move out of the way of the enemy while your attacks recharge. Don't try to go toe to toe with the enemy, it hurts!

I just found a scroll of Fireburst, which my mage already knows. Can I sell the scroll at some point or is it useless? Also, if I find a scroll of something that he doesn't already know do I just carry it around with me, or how does he use it?

I am only on level 2, but the conventional wisdom is that the scrolls are not sell-able. I heard that the game has no merchants, yet it is too early to tell. The main point of scrolls could be to teach you the runes and remind you if you should forget the combinations.

here is a question on my side, does anybody know why there are earthquakes from time to time while wandering through grimrock? Its giving me goosebumps

Keep in mind you are exploring a dungeon from which no one has come out on the other end alive, so there probably will not be merchants to sell or trade items and equipment. Additionally, I have yet to find any gold or other precious metals used for an economy.

I found a treasure. Some golden pimp juice...I mean a golden goblet worthy of kings. Maybe I get to buy some nice stuff, once I escaped the dungeon.
