When this spell is cast, the magic-user can alter his appearance and form including
clothing and equipment - to appear taller or shorter; thin, far or in
between: human, humanoid or any other generally man-shaped bipedal creature.
The caster's body can undergo a limited physical alteration and his size
can be changed up to 50%. If the form selected has wings, the magic-user can
actually fly, but at only one-third the speed of a true creature of that type, and
with a loss of two maneuverability classes (to a minimum of E).
If the form has gills, the caster can breathe under water as long as the spell
lasts. However, the caster does not gain any multiple attack routines or additional damage allowed to an assumed form. The caster's attack rolls, Armor
Class and saving throws do not change. The spell does not confer special abilities,
attack forms or defenses. Once the new form is chosen, it remains for the
duration of the spell. The caster can change back into his own form at will;
this ends the spell immediately. A caster who is slain automatically returns to
his normal form.
