  It hurts extremely because your whole body is physically altered.

    There’s a whole fetish community that’s SOOOOO into this idea

  You shift by magically turning yourself inside out ass first

    Disgusting and likely painful, would have to be done somewhere private

      You’re worried about manners??

        I mean, the point of shapeshifting is to be sneaky

    From beneath you, it devours

  Your brain shape shifts as well into an exact copy of the animal you mimic. You have the intelligence of the creature you turn into. Which means a one way trip as any coherent logical human thoughts is driven out by animal instincts.

    If I shapeshift into another human, I’d just have their memories

    source

    • OZFive@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      This would have infer that your shape shifting skill had the ability to mimic not just their DNA but their nueral patterns as well. Without that you are again just left with instinct and a blank slate brain with no memory or knowledge.

      Oh my god, Memento meets Animorphs.

      Holy shit this is actually a good idea, I would actually read this book or watch this movie…

      It could also work in a video game, but it would be very difficult to pull this off as the player character… could make for some extremely interesting NPCs in various settings.

  Your clothes are not transformed with you

    Still works. I just gotta shapeshift into someone about my height

      You shapeshift, including your mind. When you change into a person, you take on all of their memories as well. You become a complete copy, and the old you simply ceases to exist. If you turn yourself into Donal Trump, there’s just a random copy of the president sitting in your apartment, utterly confused about where he is or how he got there. And the ability to shapeshift was a power of your old body. The new one can’t shapeshift.

  Your weight also change, but the difference is converted to energy using mass–energy equivalence formula.

    Grow slowly -> walking air cooler

    Shink rapidly -> Boom

    source

    • Holyginz@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Wouldn’t it be more like: Grow slowly -> burn proportional amount of calories Since you would need to get that energy from somewhere

      source

      • Gutek8134@lemmy.world ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        So you’d be interpolating between a keg-shaped dwarf and slenderman; sounds nice, too

    So I just need to keep my weight constant

  But comes with body dysmorphic disorder. You’ll never be satisfied with how you look.

  source

  • jsomae@lemmy.ml ⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Not until you finally get it right, and at that point you look like a total freak to everyone else. But at least you’re satisfied.

  Granted, but you can never turn back

    access to all animal shapes, but can only use them once, stuck in final form forever.

      Oh no… I’m a cat. Done and done.

  You can only shapeshift into smaller versions of yourself.

  source

  • dylanmorgan@slrpnk.net ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    That’s not really a side effect, more of a condition.

    source

    • hddsx@lemmy.ca ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      Every time you shapeshift, you lose the ability to shape shift one more atom than the last time you shapeshifted?

        Like a Ramen card in Balatro

  You can only shift into a species that you’ve seen before. Can only shape shift into living things (not sentient and mobile inanimate objects)

  And you can never return to any species you were previously. It has to be a new one every time until you exhaust the possible species. Leaving you stuck as the last possible species you pick to shape shift into.

  source

  • Kidplayer_666@lemm.ee ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    Wait, but can I shapeshift within a given species?

    source
• phr@discuss.tchncs.de ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

  you shapeshift, but your state and society will periodically and randomly remind you, that they know, what shape you had earlier … wait, that does already exist. still superpower tho!

  You can’t actually become anything unique, the body approximately closest to your imagination becomes yours. They also, become you in turn. You immediately become a world wide sensation if used frequently.

  source

  • Kidplayer_666@lemm.ee ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

    That’s not shapeshifting, that’s body swapping

    source

    • OmegaLemmy@discuss.online ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

      fuck

      • Kidplayer_666@lemm.ee ⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago

        Still a cool power

  You forget what you like if you are changed for too long and don’t have a detailed enough reference

    A matter of keeping some hair in a jar as well as a photograph of mine
