Arcane Stylus

The Arcane Stylus (formally known as Stylus in the game code) is a magical tool used to inscribe special properties onto armor or transform blank scrolls in Remixed Dungeon.

• Rarity: Rare
• Weight: 1
• Durability: Single use item
• Class Restriction: Can be used by all hero classes
• Curses: Cannot be used on cursed items

• Inscription: Allows inscribing random glyphs on armor or transforming blank scrolls into random scrolls
• Random Effects: The specific glyph or scroll type is randomly determined when used
• Equipment Enhancement: Improves armor with magical properties
• Target Items: Can be used on armor and Blank Scrolls
• Single Action: Uses the 'Inscribe' action to perform either function

• With Armor: Adds a random glyph to armor (replacing any existing glyph)
• With Blank Scrolls: Transforms the blank scroll into a random scroll

• Best used on high-quality armor to maximize benefit from glyphs
• Consider the risks vs. rewards as effects are random - you may get a highly desirable effect or a less useful one
• Very valuable for improving defensive equipment with useful glyphs
• Can be used to create scrolls when none are available
• Most effective when applied to armor to enhance protection
