| This wonderful scroll causes the creation of a valuable item to appear before the reader. It is especially treasured by specialist magicians, as they can use it to obtain the powerful spells of their specialty. |
When read, a scroll of acquirement gives the lucky adventurer an acquirement. This gives the adventurer a choice of item categories, then creates a valuable item of that category at their feet. The degree of control over the prize is limited, which often leads to disappointment and acquirement remorse syndrome ("I knew I should have asked for a book instead of armour").
Items received via acquirement are never cursed, unless the player worships Ashenzari (in which case they are always cursed). It is however possible for the acquired item to curse itself every time it is equipped.
