Version 0.13: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.


Type Scroll
Name Scroll of teleportation
Icon Scroll of teleportation.png
Reading the words on this scroll translocates you to a random position after a short delay.

Reading a scroll of teleportation will cause the player to become "strangely unstable" and then teleport to a random location several turns later. The actual duration depends on several circumstances:

Circumstance Duration
Normal 3-5 turns
Teleport control active
whether it will work or not
Adds 1-3 turns
In the Abyss 4/5 chance to add 5-14 turns
Carrying the Orb Outside the Abyss, adds 5-9 turns.

Alternatively, you can read one while waiting for a teleport to kick in to negate that teleport and keep yourself in place.

Teleport control allows the player to pick his destination. However, he may only select a known tile: one that has been previously seen or one that has been revealed to him by a scroll of magic mapping, Ashenzari's terrain detection, or the Passive Mapping mutation.
