# Remove curse
Remove curse is an effect that converts certain cursed items to uncursed, and is available primarily through two items:

The spellbook of remove curse via the spell that it confers; or
directly through the scroll of remove curse.
A magic trap can also confer the remove curse effect.
A limited remove curse effect is invoked by the magic trap, an uncursed scroll, or the spell at skill level of basic or lower; it uncurses the wielded item, any worn armor, rings, blindfold, or amulet, and any carried loadstones; it also reverses any punishment. A full remove curse effect is invoked by a blessed scroll or the spell at skilled or higher; it uncurses all inventory items and reverses any punishment.
See curse removal for a full list of ways to remove cursed items you are stuck to.
