The shapeshifters or shape changers include:

All are capable of imitating other monsters - which monsters they imitate is dependent on which monster is in question - and will shift between disguises on a frequent basis. Wearing a ring of protection from shape changers will force them into their normal form.

Lycanthropes are also a type of shape changer, alternating between human and animal. They are:

  • @, wererats
  • @, werejackals
  • @, werewolves

Finally, we have the mimics. They do not attempt to change into other creatures, but they instead pretend to be objects, and most often reside in shops. As far as actually fooling players goes, these are by far the most effective. There are three variations:

  • m, small mimics
  • m, large mimics
  • m, giant mimics
