- Prior to 0.22, wisp form, along with most other bad forms, disallowed the use of wands.
- Prior to 0.15, wisp form allowed the player to blink as an ability, but prevented you from reading scrolls. It also granted perfect conservation, protecting your consumables from item destruction.
- Wisp Form was added in 0.12.
