TFT Scrolls Suck

A collection of my own musings, not to be taken too seriously. -HJC

TFT Scrolls are overpriced and under performing. Scrolls require two hands, an extra turn, a casting roll and strength from a wizard. Here are some alternative items that do the same jobs easier.

Note that even if the potion grants hours of effect, I'm still only charging for a minute's worth of fatigue in healing potions.
