The Basic D&D Rules Cyclopedia had all kinds of scrolls in it:Scrolls of Communication: what's written on one appears on the other.Scroll of Creation: draw an object on the scroll to create it for 24 hours.Cursed Scroll: you get fubarred!Scroll of Equipment: six item names on this scroll, say on to summon that item.Scroll of Illumination: light it on fire to make a reusable super-torch.Treasure Map: possibly mundane, possibly only readable with comprehend languages.Scroll of Mapping: records a map of the dungeon as you walk. probably has another name already in 5e.Scroll of Portals: allows you to invoke a passwall type effect.Scroll of Questioning: allows you to ask 3 questions of an inanimate object and it will answer.Scroll of Seeing: acts as your personal portrait artist / court room illustrator.Scroll of Shelter: if hung from the wall, the room depicted on it may be entered.Scroll of Spell Catching: can be used to counter a spell and steal it onto the scroll.Scroll of Trapping: create a trap. boom.Scroll of Truth: ask a question of a creature and its true answer appears written on the scroll, regardless of what it says.I can see why several of these weren't included in 5e - either due to design reasons, or because they've since been subsumed by spells - but still plenty of ideas for you to adapt!</blockquote>
