Hit: 10 (2d6 + 3) slashing damage and the target is subject to the guardian scroll\xe2\x80\x99s Bleed ability, and the scroll attaches itself to the target.

At rest, guardian scrolls appear identical to any number of different types of magical or non-magical scrolls. When a guardian scroll becomes active, it rises in the air and unfurls to a length of almost 4 feet. It wafts through the air with casual ease as it approaches its target. When it attacks, it stiffens its edges, making them blade-sharp. It races past its target and draws its entire length across any exposed flesh, leaving a long, deep, and painful slash that bleeds badly afterward. This is not the scroll\xe2\x80\x99s only means of attack, however. It can also wrap itself around a Medium or smaller creature in the blink of an eye, constricting it. \n'b' While the strength of its constriction is not as intense as that of a giant snake, the guardian scroll is intelligent enough to strategically wrap itself around the face of its target to blind and asphyxiate the creature.'
