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 state | Result |
|---|---|
| Blessed | Grants 9 units of alertness. |
| Uncursed | Grants 4 units of alertness. |
| Cursed | No 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.
