Scroll of fear

This scroll causes great fear in those who see the one who reads it. |
Reading a scroll of fear causes most natural monsters in the reader's view to become frightened and flee for a few turns (including your allies). Berserk monsters are immune to its effects. It is extremely useful when swarmed (even better than a scroll of blinking in the early game), and should be saved for dangerous situations. In the late game, monsters with high magic resistance will often resist this scroll.
A similar effect can be achieved through the Cause Fear spell.
