Spell description
While casting this spell, the caster makes threatening gestures and saysstuff like "I'm gonna beat the crap out of you, you can't fight worthhalf a kobold, you sniveling wretch!" When he is done harassing hisfoes, the caster undergoes a hideous transformation which takes 1 round.
He grows a metallic scaly hide which lowers his AC to -2.(modified by dexterityand rings and cloaks of protection). His hands lengthen into scythe-likeblades, and his strength boosts to 20.(1d12+8/1d12+8, +3 to hit). He gainsa MV rate of 36, a magic resistance of 50% and all saves gain a +2 bonus.Also, his face turns into a lizard-like visage, complete with a set of largefangs that do 1d8+8 pts of damage, and the fangs also have poison whichdoes 30 points on a failed save, 15 points on a good save. The casters THAC0improves by 6 and his HP are doubled.
These effects fade when the duration ends, no enemies are around, or thecaster retreats. Desmond invented this because he was sick of being harassedby brawny fighter types and he really felt like scaring them away.
