The scroll of teleportation moves the reader elsewhere on the current level. Its identified name is unchanged by BUC state, and blippers carry one when encountered.
Effects and interactions
| BUC state | Result |
|---|---|
| Blessed | Lets the reader choose an unoccupied floor tile; an invalid or occupied choice becomes a safe random teleport. |
| Uncursed | Moves the reader to a random safe space. |
| Cursed | Moves the reader to a random map position; landing anywhere other than floor or an open door is fatal. |
An uncursed scroll moves the reader to a random safe space. A blessed scroll allows a chosen destination, but a non-floor or occupied tile becomes a safe random teleport. A cursed scroll moves the reader to a completely random map position; landing anywhere other than floor or an open door is fatal.
An uncursed copy identifies itself. A blessed copy accepts only unoccupied floor as a chosen destination, although a cursed teleport can also survive on an open door.
Strategy
An identified uncursed copy is a dependable emergency escape, while a blessed copy supports precise positioning. An unknown copy is potentially lethal because a cursed teleport can land on unsafe terrain.
