The scroll of punishment is one of the nastiest scrolls in the game. It creates a heavy iron ball and a chain that are attached to you and hinder your movements.
It is expensive, so when unidentified, less careful players might mistake it for the scroll of genocide or the scroll of stinking cloud. When blessed, this scroll is harmless; you only get the message "You feel guilty". This happens also when you read this scroll while confused. Also, if you are polymorphed into an amorphous, whirly or non-solid creature when reading this scroll, the ball and chain will appear but fall off immediately.
If you are already being punished when reading this scroll, the weight of the iron ball increases.
Removing the iron ball
Reading a non-confused scroll of remove curse (of any BUC status) removes the chain. If those are not available, there are a few other ways.
Polymorphing has several alternatives. Polymorph into a nymph to remove it by using the #monster command. You can also polymorph into a metallivore and eat the ball away. The third option is to polymorph into an amorphous, whirly or monster and thus slip out of the chain.
However, if polymorphing is not an option, you may dig or find a pit, drop the ball in it and push a boulder on it.
