- What you will be able to write is dependant on two things; what
- scrolls you have already identified (use '\' to find that out), and
- how many charges the magic marker has. You won't be able to write a
- scroll you haven't identified (Calling one works as well as id'ing
- it). Nor will you be able to write a scroll that drains the m.m. of
- more charges than it has. There is a table about somewhere listing
- the charges that each scroll requires; costs range between 4-30
- charges and are *not* totally fixed. Also, a blessed magic marker
- always writes blessed scrolls, unless the scroll of blank paper is
- cursed, in which case the scroll created will be uncursed.
-
- The first scroll I would write is a blessed scroll of charging, for
- recharging the m.m. when it runs low on charges. After that, it
- really depends on what you have and what you need. I like to identify
- *everything*, so I usually write lots of blessed scrolls of identify.
- If you have say a +0 helm of brilliance or +0 gloves of dexterity, you
- might want to write a few scrolls of enchant armor.
