Usage: metamorph <animal>
return [to return to real form
In the past, becoming a hero (level 21+) allowed characters to take the Istar Quest, which involved apprentice levels known as metamorph levels. However, the metamorph command has been removed from the Istar Quest to better align the quest with its intent of helping new players.
Beornings can still metamorph into a Bear.
Each meta form has unique advantages and disadvantages over the others, and the meta form does not retain any of the skills of the character in his normal form, nor do spellscast upon the normal form carry over to the metamorph. Metamorphs are also unable to bash doors.
Note, that in order for any experience or travel points gained while in metamorph form to be saved, you must return to your normal form. However, any gold or equipment carried by the meta form will be lost upon return. Metas have no autowimpy mode, but can flee manually if they choose.
