The '''scroll of acquirement''' is a [[Scrolls|scroll]] in the Omega 0.90.4 remake. It appears as a bright-yellow {{Omega glyph|?|color=yellow|label=question mark}} until its shuffled inscription is identified. Its cursed appearance is ''scroll of destruction''.
The '''scroll of acquirement''' creates an item from a category chosen by the reader. A cursed copy is instead identified as a ''scroll of destruction'' and can destroy equipped gear.
 
== Generation and appearance ==
Once item generation has selected the scroll class, it chooses uniformly among all 24 scroll IDs and copies the selected definition. The class definitions are neutral by default. Thirty unidentified inscriptions are shuffled at game initialization, so the visible label does not reliably identify this type between games.
 
== Data and mechanics ==
The definition has base value 5000, item level 7, weight 5, fragility 1, and the COMMON flag. The base value is the definition value, not a promised shop price. Reading is unavailable while blind or afraid; cancelling the inventory prompt spends no scroll, while successful dispatch normally consumes one.

UncursedCreates a random item from a category chosen by the reader.
CursedDestroys a random equipped possession; does nothing when no eligible item exists.

Effects and interactions

An uncursed scroll asks for an item category and creates a random item from it. A blessed copy also lets the reader choose an exact listed item and creates it fully identified. A cursed copy destroys a random equipped possession, or does nothing when there is no eligible item.

Available categories include potions, scrolls, rings, sticks, armor, shields, weapons, boots, cloaks, food, and things. Artifacts cannot normally be selected.

Strategy

Blessed acquirement is far more controllable than an uncursed copy, so preserve a blessing source when a specific item would solve a run. Before risking an unknown copy, remove irreplaceable equipment; cursed destruction draws from equipped possessions.
