Polymorphing transforms items or characters into different types. For example, a rock can be polymorphed into a scroll, and a human can be polymorphed into a buffalo. There are various methods of polymorphing and of controlling polymorph.

Drinking from [[Fountain|fountains]] or stepping through [[Gas|magic gas]] (from a magical mushroom, staff of wonderous smells, etc.) could possibly give the character Polymorphing, PolyControl, or both.

==Items==

===Wand of Polymorph===

You can polymorph characters (including yourself) and items with a [[Wand|wand of polymorph]].

Zapping a wand of polymorph will polymorph any objects or creatures within a 5 block range. Up to five items on each block (the five closest to the ground) will be polymorphed. Some items can not be created in this method, such as [[Scroll|scrolls of charging]]. Some creatures, mainly the named creatures, cannot be polymorphed.

Applying or otherwise destroying a wand of polymorph will polymorph any objects or creatures in a 3x3 grid centered on the wand.

===Ring of Polymorph===

Wearing a [[Ring|ring of polymorph]] will cause the character to polymorph randomly. However, it does not give the character PolyControl, so it is risky.

===Chameleon Whip===

A [[Whip|chameleon whip]] will sometimes have the effect of polymorphing the creature which is hit by the whip.

==Monsters==

The only creature that polymorphs on its own is the [[chameleon]]. Chameleons will polymorph when they feel threatened, and can polymorph into any non-named monster.

However, eating the corpses of [[Carnivorous Mutant Bunny|mutant bunnies]], [[Mutant Ass|mutant asses]], and chameleons will bestow the Polymorphing state upon the player. Eating [[Giant Mushroom|giant mushrooms]] will also sometimes have this effect.

==PolyControl==

PolyControl is a state which allows the character to choose which creature they polymorph into. The easiest way to be permanently in this state is to wear a [[Ring|Ring of PolyControl]]. You can also temporarily have PolyControl by eating a magical mushroom or drinking from a [[Fountain]]. You may not polymorph into named characters.

Wielding Valpurus's [[Justifier]] will also bestow PolyControl on the character.

It is not possible to control polymorphing of items.
