The Scroll of Identity (Japanese: 識別の巻物) is a scroll in Nintendo DS Mystery Dungeon: Shiren the Wanderer. Reading an Identity Scroll allows you to select a single item in your inventory (not in a Jar) to be identified. Sometimes (randomly), reading the scroll will identify all items in your inventory (not in Jars). Identifying an item reveals that item's true name and the number of charges (if any), and that information will be available to you for the rest of that run. The same will be true for any additional items of that type that you discover.

Example: if you identify a Cherrywood Staff, you may learn that it is in fact a Knockback Staff [4]. From then on, any Knockback Staves you find will be identified to you as such. You will not know the number of charges in any new items, however, until you identify them as well.

Tips For Use

  • All items in your inventory are automatically identified when you enter a town (Bamboo Village, Mountaintop Town, etc), so you can save Scrolls of Identity for your "dungeon" runs when you won't have the chance to visit a village
