Effects[]
| “ | This ability allows a rogue to create low- and mid-level spell scrolls. The scrolls that the rogue can create are randomly chosen from the following list: | ” |
- Magic Missile
- Haste
- Fireball
- Dispel Magic
- Dire Charm
- Invisibility

Gameplay[]
This ability is of limited use: Not only is the created scroll random, but also casting from a scroll means a minimum caster level is used (usually 10), making spells like Dispel Magic, Cone of Cold or Haste weaker than if they were cast by a Mage / Sorcerer / Bard.

An experienced Thief can use the knowledge of his opponent's weak spots to gain an advantage in combat. During the round when this ability is activated, every attack of the Thief deals maximum damage and may weaken his target. On each successful hit the victim must make a saving throw vs. death (with a -4 penalty) or have its strength score lowered to 10 for the next five rounds. Note: Constructs, Elementals, Slimes and Undead creatures are completely unaffected by this ability.
