Name Scroll of amnesia
Icon Scroll of amnesia.png
A scroll that allows its reader to selectively erase one spell from memory to recapture the magic energy bound up with it.

Reading a scroll of amnesia causes you to instantly forget a spell of your choosing, which can be used to free up a caster's spell levels to memorize other spells.

Stategy

  • If you have previously identified the scroll, you may press Esc after reading to cancel the scroll's effect without consuming it.
  • Any caster who does not worship Sif Muna should hoard these for the late game. They are a much less expensive means of forgetting spells than destroying spell books.

History

Prior to 0.13, forgetting spells would restore MP equal to the spell's level, and the scroll would only identify if you knew a spell to forget.
