Default Re: Multiple Forms

A long answer:

Yes, see Jotun Skratti for one in-game example of such a unit. In the future patch, Hydras will use the same mechanic to lose heads and grow others in their place.

You do it with

7.75 #secondshape <monster name> | <monster nbr>
This monster will assume another shape when it gets seriously wounded. Remember to give the other shape the #firstshape command if you want it to return to the primary form when it feels better. Werewolves and elementals use this ability.


size 6 elemental has #secondshape size 5 elemental, which has #secondshape size 4 elemental... etc. However, you shouldn't use #secondshape to change from the last shape into the first, as that'd make the creature immortal (size 1 elemental is killed and it becomes size 6, which becomes size 5... size 1, which becomes...). I'm not sure how the last shapechange would be done, but it's probably with #firstshape.
