The armor feels and looks like armor, but has no weight, no statistical value, and only looks like but doesn't have the properties of the item in question. If you were wearing an item that was in a shoulder slot and you took a form that was wearing shoulder items on death, you would probably still be wearing your shoulder plates, but would appear like you had on the other shoulder plates. | |

It'd be an unconvincing disguise without the dead humanoid's magic items or, at least, its magic items' auras. | |

| Oct 5, 2014 at 3:23 | comment | added | Hey I Can Chan | The FAQ addresses the corruption cost, albeit in a way that doesn't jibe at all with how corruption costs are computed for other spells. Further, corruption costs--like the Book of Exalted Deeds' sanctified costs--are assessed when the spell's duration expires not when the spell's cast (BV 76)--which is even weirder for this spell. | |
