-'''Porkalator''' is a monster-only spell. If it beats a [[willpower]] check, it turns the target into a pig. For players, you are temporarily forced into [[Pig Form]]. This melds all equipment except [[amulet]], prevents spellcasting, and greatly weakens your Unarmed Combat. Monsters are turned into a [[hog]], [[hell hog]], or [[holy swine]], for natural, demonic, and holy, monsters respectively. Players do not get these alternate forms.

-'''Porkalator''' is a monsters-only spell which attempts to temporarily force its target (usually [[you]]) into [[Pig Form]]. This will meld all equipment except for [[amulet]]s into your body, suppress any suppressible [[mutations]], greatly decrease your effectiveness in [[Unarmed Combat]], and prevent you from casting spells until it wears off.
