Possible Polymorphs

The following apply to land-based enemies. Flyers will always be polymorphed into chickens. When this occurs, they will promptly fall to the ground and explode in a harmless puff of feathers. Land-based chickens are friendly and will be attacked by approaching Orcs. While chickens cannot attack, one hit by an Orc is sufficient to kill a chicken.

• Chicken
• Healing Potion
• Mana Potion
• Coin worth 100
• Orc Warrior (all types)
• Kobold Runner
• Gnoll Hunter
• Troll
• Swamp Troll
• Mountain Troll
• Ogre
• Armored Ogre
• Fire Ogre
• Frost Ogre

It is recommended that some mana be kept in reserve when transforming enemies, so as to re-polymorph or freeze some of the more nasty monsters, should they suddenly appear.

A very useful strategy is to turn an enemy into a very strong one, such as an ogre or troll and then immediately use the mushroom trap to have them as an ally. By doing this multiple times, you can quickly develop a whole army of powerful allies.
