The scroll of alertness temporarily sharpens the reader's awareness. A cursed copy is named scroll of drowsiness, although it has no effect when read.

Effects and interactions

BUC stateResult
BlessedGrants 9 units of alertness.
UncursedGrants 4 units of alertness.
CursedNo effect.

An uncursed scroll grants 4 units of alertness and a blessed scroll grants 9. While alert, the reader always succeeds when searching and cannot lose an action to an invisible monster's surprise.

Despite its name, a cursed scroll of drowsiness neither causes sleep nor identifies itself. Alertness wears off over time.

Strategy

Use an identified copy before searching a suspicious area or approaching invisible threats. Blessing more than doubles its duration. A cursed copy can be discarded, since it does not even put the reader to sleep.
