Blink (status)

Version 0.30: This article may not be up to date for the latest stable release of Crawl.

You are unstable and cannot cast Blink or activate evoked blink abilities for a short period of time. Powerful sources of translocation magic such as scrolls of blinking ignore this limitation, as do external sources of blinking outside of your control.

-Blink is a status effect you suffer after casting Blink or evoking a +Blink ability. It prevents you from casting the spell or evoking the ability for (50 - <power>)/10 + 1d2 - 1 turns.

You are still too unstable to blink.

At zero power the cooldown is 5-6 turns; at the full power the cooldown is reduced to zero.

The status does not prevent the use of scrolls of blinking, Passage of Golubria, or any external source of Translocations magic.
