==Useful Info==
 
A talisman, when e'''V'''oked, turns you into a respective [[transformation]] (e.g. a [[beast talisman]] turns you into [[Beast Form]]). This transformation lasts indefinitely. It can't be [[potion of cancellation|cancelled]] or [[Quicksilver Bolt|dispelled]], though you can voluntarily exit at any time. Entering or exiting a form takes 5 turns. If you are turned into a [[bad form]], when you revert, you'll go back to your talisman form.
 
 
 
Once you have turned into a desired form, the talisman can safely be dropped. You do not need to hold the talisman to stay in a form, nor do you need it to exit a form. Talismans are found around the dungeon and in jewellery [[shop]]s.
 
 
 
The [[undead]] ([[ghoul]]s, [[mummies]], bloodless [[vampire]]s) are unable to transform. [[Zin]] despises form-shifting and will instantly excommunicate any follower who uses one.
 
 
 
===Transformations===
 
In general, a form will increase various attributes (like [[HP]] or [[AC]]), but will meld certain types of [[equipment]]. Melded equipment ceases to have any effect, positive or negative. Melding is not an unequip, so it's safe to meld artefacts with *Drain or *Contam.
 
 
 
All forms enhance [[Unarmed Combat]] in some way. Otherwise, each form has its own benefits and downsides. Some forms let you wield a weapon, others let you have nothing but your [[jewellery]]. Forms will often negate certain [[mutation]]s or change your [[size]].
 
 
 
Being in any form will make you take +75% damage from [[silver]] weaponry.
 
 
 
===Skill===
 
Each form has a minimum [[Transmutations]] skill. Below this skill, you will receive a penalty to max HP. (See [https://github.com/crawl/crawl/blob/916a98a20d8754ba65854895a2b31a2bc3f0b265/crawl-ref/source/transform.cc#L297 transform.cc])
 
 
 
Max HP = <code>25% + 75% * (Transmutations / min_skill)^2</code> percent (25% at 0 Transmutations; 100% at min skill).
 
 
 
Keep in mind that some forms increase your max HP, and this bonus is not lost by being underskilled. E.g. if a form gave you 200% max HP, and you were at 0 Transmutations, you'd get 50% of your form-less HP.
 
 
 
Raising Transmutations past this point will give you form-specific benefits. Beast Form will increase your [[slaying]] (attack) bonus, Statue Form will increase your defenses, etc. Each form also has a maximum Transmutations skill, where further training has no benefit.
 
 
 
Talismans do not use [[spellpower]], so [[intelligence]], [[wizardry]], etc. has no effect.
