What happened? I am playing advanced rogue 3.3 but these sound like the same items. 1) A staff of charging, if used, will allow you to charge any other staff you might have. 2) You got a parasitic infestation. You need a scroll of cure disease or a ring of sustain health. Otherwise you will lose hit points every time you move until you die. 3) A blue aura around your head is a potion of clear thought. 4) You can only buy from a quartermaster what he has to offer. That may be food, it may not. 5) Intelligence is that property that allows one to cast spells. Likewise, wisdom will allow one to pray. You need at least 16 in either category to do this. 6) You read a scroll of identify. These scrolls will identify everything in your pack at the time. A potion of raise level will tell you that your level has been raised. Hope this helps Snertt the rogue !aluxz!asw
