Editing Morph (section)

==Appearances==
==={{DQ3}}===
The spell is learned by both [[Mage]]s and [[Sage]]s at Level 37 and costs 12 {{MP}}. Special effects of weapons and armor are not copied, but the special effects of the user's equipment are used despite their stats not being used. As such, it is highly powerful in conjunction when copying a high-Attack ally (such as a [[Warrior]]) while the user themselves has a weak weapon with a strong special effect (such as [[falcon blade]] or [[boomerang]]); the user will be able to use their powerful weapon without being held back by their weapon's low base Attack.

In the original NES version, if a character under the effect of Transform attempts to cast a spell from the person they have transformed into, and [[Zoma]] casts [[Disruptive Wave]] before they get to act, that spell will still be cast even if it happens after Disruptive Wave in the turn order and even if the Transform caster does not themselves know the spell. In all subsequent remakes, if Disruptive Wave hits before a Transform caster gets to act, they will lose their action that turn.

==={{DQ3HD}}===
Morph is learned by Mages and Sages at level 36 if their wisdom exceeds 164 points. Morph costs 12 MP and lasts for 4~6 turns.

==={{DQ4}}===
The spell is used by [[Eliza]] to pose as The {{Hero 4}} so that he/she won't be killed by [[Psaro the Manslayer]]'s army.  She demonstrates the spell earlier in the [[Dragon Quest IV Prologue|Prologue]] in the [[Sony PlayStation]] and [[Nintendo DS]] versions, in which she turned into a frog & rabbit.

It is also used by [[Float-o-copier]]s, but can be undone by use of the {{Zenithian sword}} and the [[Ra's Mirror]].

The Hero can also learn it at Level 30, but only in the {{NES}} Version.

==={{DQ5}}===
[[Admirer]]s are the only foes that will cast Morph, and will only copy the [[Monster recruitment|recruited]] monsters the player has in their party. If none are present,  admirers will never cast the spell. 

==={{DQ6}}===
The spell is only usable by [[devil glass]]es, [[haunted mirror]]s and [[infernal pane]]s. These transformations can be undone by the [[Ra's Mirror]].

The mirrors display a character's over world sprite in the {{SFC}} and thus have not attack animations, but were given very detailed and smoothly animated sprites in the {{DS}} remake.

==={{DQ7}}===
[[Admirer]]s and [[knight shift]]s make use of the spell in both versions of the game. In the original PSX, a static sprite would be utilized while a moving 3D model would appear in the 3DS version. In either case the transformation would only reflect the character's default appearance and disregard vocations and equipment.

==={{DQ8}}===
A young girl in [[Alexandria]] expresses an interest in mastering the spell (referred to in the game as Transform), despite {{Jessica}} recommending her to start from the bottom with simple spells like [[Frizz]]. If she's visited later, she will demonstrate being able to use the spell, but not being able to control the results very easily as she wanted to become a [[hammerhood]], but turns into a [[rockbomb]] and then a [[walking corpse]] before reverting back.

==={{DQ11}} ''S:Definitive Edition''===
The {{Hero 11}} and party are sent to the [[Hidden Valley]] prior to the events of {{Dragon Quest IV}} as Eliza is still perfecting the spell.  The spell is undone by them through the use of the [[supreme sage's staff]].

==={{DQM}}===
Called Transform in this game, it requires the monster to reach level 21 with 92 HP and 88 intelligence. It is naturally learned by the [[Float-o-copier|copycat]] and [[Devil glass|madmirror]].

==={{DQM2}}===
Transform now requires 159 intelligence to learn. It is naturally learned by the [[Meowgician|catmage]].
