| 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, inflicting the Tele status before it happens.
You feel strangely unstable.
The actual duration depends on several circumstances:[1]
| Circumstance | Duration |
|---|---|
| Normal | 3-5 turns |
| In the Abyss (even when carrying the Orb) | 8-19 turns |
| In The Realm of Zot or when carrying the Orb | 8-14 turns |
Strategy
- Keep in mind that the teleport is entirely random. If you are attempting to escape a dangerous situation, there is a chance that you only teleport a few tiles away, or even into a whole new can of worms!
- 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.
- A potion of cancellation will also end a teleport (along with any other effects you may have).
- Monsters with Quicksilver Bolt can also cancel your teleportation, whenever you'd like it or not.
History
- Prior to 0.19, scrolls of teleportation worked normally in The Realm of Zot, before picking up the Orb of Zot.
- Prior to 0.17, it was possible to perform controlled teleports.
- Prior to 0.17, there was a 20% chance that the Abyss would not add time to teleportation.
- Prior to 0.13, controlled teleports did not have a longer delay. In older versions, the Orb did not add time to teleportation.
