| Cursed name | scroll of blindness |
The scroll of true sight temporarily reveals invisible and illusory monsters. A cursed copy is identified as a scroll of blindness, and phantasticons carry one when encountered.
Effects and interactions
| BUC state | Result |
|---|---|
| Blessed | Grants true sight for 1 through 10 duration units. |
| Uncursed | Grants true sight for 1 through 10 duration units. |
| Cursed | Inflicts blindness for 1 through 10 duration units. |
An uncursed scroll grants 1 through 10 duration units of true sight. While active, true sight reveals invisible monsters, corrects monster illusions, and prevents invisible surprise. A cursed scroll instead inflicts blindness for 1 through 10 duration units.
The scroll identifies itself in every BUC state. Blessing does not extend true sight. Both true sight and blindness wear off over time.
Strategy
Use it before fighting invisible or illusory monsters, but do not spend a blessing merely to extend its duration. Testing an unknown copy risks blindness for the same 1d10 duration range.
