What Does Polymorph Work On?

Direct Answer

Polymorph is a 3rd-level transmutation spell that allows you to transform a creature or an object into a new form. The spell has no effect on a shapechanger or a creature with 0 hit points. The creature or object must make a Wisdom saving throw to avoid the effect.

Transforming Creatures

When casting polymorph on a creature, you can transform it into any animal you can think of. The creature will retain its alignment and personality, but its game statistics, including mental ability scores, will be replaced by the statistics of the chosen beast. The creature can’t speak, cast spells, or take any other action that requires hands or speech.

Transforming Objects

When casting polymorph on an object, you can transform it into any object you can think of. The object will take on the properties of the new form, but its original form will be preserved. The object can be used as a new item, but it will have the same properties as the original object.

Creature Types

Polymorph can be used on various creature types, including animals, monsters, and constructs. The spell can’t be used on plants, humans, or other sentient creatures.

Object Types

Polymorph can be used on various object types, including furniture, clothing, and tools. The spell can’t be used on living creatures, spells, or other abstract things.

Restrictions

Polymorph has the following restrictions:

• Can’t be used on a shapechanger or a creature with 0 hit points
• Can’t be used on a plant
• Can’t be used on a human or other sentient creature
• Can’t be used on a creature that is already polymorphed
• Can’t be used on an object that is already polymorphed

Converting Between Forms

When casting polymorph, you must specify the form you want to convert to. If you want to convert between two forms, you can use the spell again with the new form specified. The spell can be used multiple times to convert between different forms.

Changing Back

If you or the creature you polymorphed wants to change back to its original form, you can use the polymorph spell again with the original form specified. However, if the creature you polymorphed is dead or has 0 hit points, it can’t be changed back.

Polymorphing While Cursed

If you are cursed while polymorphed, you will still be affected by the curse. If you are cured while polymorphed, you will still be affected by the curse. Similarly, if you are affected by a spell while polymorphed, you will still be affected by the spell.
