The arcane is a tall, lanky giant with bluish skin. Its face is quite elongated with narrow features and a somewhat sunken appearance. Large hands with slender fingers grasp at the magical items in its makeshift magic shop. The arcane is wearing a white robe gathered at the waist by a blue belt. It appears to be a peaceful humanoid and one that may be relatively non-combative in nature.
An arcane has quite a few wounds.

You attempt to peek at the inventory:

Don't know what a rope scroll is or could be. Wasn't hard to pop, but it's late an I'm going to bed. Didn't see it listed in the item list. I've never had a scroll vanish on me before I could ID it...

Any info is welcome.

If I remember correctly rope scroll is a temp scroll from lyme that creates a magic rope room when you recite it.&nbsp; How it got there I have NOOOOOOOOOO idea however if memory serves me correctly if temp items are smuggled off they don't go poof until you hit recall point or possibly in town in which case that would explain why it went away.&nbsp; It still doesn't explain however how it got there in the first place.&nbsp; Just my 2 cents take them how you want<BR>Shyla<BR>

Arcane vendor pops (and was always popping) it and other interesting items quite often.

Check out http://sloth.eunet.lv/mobs/showmob.phtml?id=7156WF7163 and stop whining that it was "smuggled"

Impressive resource...

Thanks to both.

most likely it wasn't smuggled - it is probably on the list of random pops

Holy thread necromancy...
