Shapechange (also shape change[4]) was a transmutation spell.

Effects[]

A powerful variant of the polymorph family, it changed the user's shape into any creature, and allowed him/her to change frequently.[3]

History[]

The spell was attributed to Netherese arcanist Stoca in −1798 DR and was originally called Stoca's change shape.[1]

Notable Uses[]

During the Time of Troubles of the Year of Shadows, 1358 DR, a brainwashed Luna used shapechange to turn into a silver dragon and attacked her friends Vajra Valmeyjar, Kyriani Agrivar, Onyx the Invincible, and Timoth Eyesbright. However, the spell did not last long, and she quickly reverted to human form.[9]
