r97 Sutek Scroll, alters stats by subtracting points from movement and adding the same amount to defense. Seems to range from 1-3 points (but further testing would be good)
(effect vaguely similar to
Mummified Scroll)

Much thanks to daisymoomin for the heads-up and deep discount.
Bumping this up, and adding that I just had a report of someone I trust trading 3 movement for 3 defense with an additional drain of 1 Intelligence point with one of these.
Rabid, I'd think that the report you got is quite possible. I reported several months ago (though the information wasn't updated), that when I used the MUMMIFIED SCROLL I got results within the expected range PLUS took a loss of one intellegence point. I don't know if the intellegence issue is a constant or random (obviously I only used the Mummified Scroll once), but there DOES appear to be that possiblity with Scrolls. It's also, I'd guess, possible that people focus on their "Battle Stats" and may usually not notice intellegence fluctuations. I really can't speak to the Scroll of the Warrior, but as I had a similar experience with the other scroll, it sure seems quite possible to me as well.
Hence the screenies of all stats for my usage. Note that HappyChton's Intelligence remained constant, instead of the usual gain with books.'
I am actually trying wheel of misfortune to re-read these, (as it is currently the cheapest way for me to get def), I will post additionaly screenies if I can ever get that to work.
I see my training idea is getting some use, but I've not had misfortune give the result I wanted, sadly. It seems random fates dislike being even usefully evil
Thanks rabid+lance. I've edited both the Scroll of the Warrior and the Mummified Scroll.
