Type Scroll
Name Scroll of teleportation
Icon Scroll of teleportation.png
A scroll that translocates the reader to a random position after a short delay.

Reading a scroll of teleportation will cause the player to teleport to a random location after several turns have passed.

You feel strangely unstable.

The actual duration depends on several circumstances:

Circumstance Duration
Normal 3-5 turns
In the Abyss 4/5 chance to add 5-14 turns
In The Realm of Zot or when carrying the Orb Outside the Abyss, adds 5-9 turns.

Strategy

  • If necessary, you can read a second scroll of teleport while a teleport is pending to cancel it and keep you in place. Teleport scrolls are very precious, so evaluate the necessity of consuming a second scroll:
You feel strangely stable.
