 Prior to the skill training overhaul in [[0.9]], scrolls of random uselessness could be used to train the first level of [[Spellcasting]], which was pretty much the only other thing they were good for.
 Prior to [[0.5]], these scrolls were not identified when used, a trait which could make them genuinely annoying at times.
