=== Notes ===

* You can [[Verb:INVOKE|invoke]] scrolls that are held in reserve without penalty (the 100 penalty applied when trying to invoke whilst holding another item is not applied when invoking from reserve).
* Generally it is petter to put a wand in reserve and wave it from there versus holding it in your hand; for the vast majority of characters, an open hand will provide more [[DS|defense]] than a hand holding a wand.
* Some examples of things you can put in reserve: [[Herb|herbs]], [[Wand|wands]], [[Scroll|scrolls]], [[Heavy quartz orb|heavy quartz orbs]], [[Blue crystal|blue crystals]], [[Solid moonstone cube|solid moonstone cubes]], and more.
* Any item that must be worn to be effective, such as [[Ruby amulet|ruby amulets]], do ''not'' work from reserve.
