*If you worship [[Ashenzari]], you may convert scrolls of remove curse into [[scroll of curse weapon|scrolls of curse weapon]], [[scroll of curse armour|armour]], or [[scroll of curse jewellery|jewellery]] by [[pray]]ing while standing over them (the exact type of curse scroll you receive is random).

*Worshippers of [[Ashenzari]] can consume a scroll of remove curse to place a curse upon an item of their choosing.
 
 
==Alternatives==
 
If you need to take off a cursed item and don't have a scroll of remove curse, there are alternatives:
 
 
 
* A [[scroll of enchant weapon]] or [[scroll of enchant armour]] will uncurse single items along with their enchanting effect. This is true even for artefact weapons and armour, although the enchantment will not take hold.
 
*Acquiring a [[mutation]] that forbids the use of a certain item automatically unwears the item. For example, if you wear a cursed helmet and gain the horns mutation, the still-cursed helmet will immediately pop off. Note that transmutations are ''not'' effective in removing armour; it is melded into your body, whether cursed or not.

*Prior to [[0.18]], the player could use [[scroll of enchant armour|scrolls of enchant armour]] and [[scroll of enchant weapon|enchant weapon]] to remove curses.
