Transmutation is a spell obtained by deconstructing Glamour Magic, extracting and simplifying certain branches, invented by the ArchMage Keaperra Thurandare.
Simple and easy to use with powerful effects, Transmutation is a highly practical magic. Correspondingly, because it lacks the complete mechanism of Glamouring compared to the Glamour Magic, Transmutation cannot target itself, and will impart the target with some of the properties of the shape being transformed into. Generally speaking, these properties are drawbacks. For example, transforming into a cow does not change the sense of taste, but one would have to eat grass.
Even so, the convenience brought by Transmutation led to its widespread dissemination. In 1995, M.A.R. classified Transmutation as a T3 dangerous magic, and it was upgraded to T2 in 2010.
