Mystify

Any object in the game may have additional (magical or mundane) powers that are not apparent at first glance. The solution for this is to Identify an object.

Note that examining an item can identify it automatically if its level is low enough compared to your Intelligence and Wisdom bonuses (plus class and skill modifiers, such as appraisal).

The identify spell reveals information about an object. The more affect runes are added the more it can reveal. Optionally, you may find identify wands in treasure chests that you can use.

When information about an object is revealed, it stays revealed. You can see the extra information by looking at it.

When the identify spell is alternated (Mystify), it can be cast upon an object to prevent anyone from learning anything about the object using identify.
