Baleful Polymorph

Is it just me or is that kind of fucked up? I always hear the argument that it's a hell of a lot nicer than killing them, but like, by that logic isn't slavery nicer?

Should this be considered an evil action?

It should be considered a lethally erotic action.
also yes

Magical Realm thread?

I mean...in a lot of settings slavery isn't automatically evil. Prison time, where you do work isn't evil either....It's similar, in a way.

No, fuck off.

Well those kind of imply the character will eventually be turned back or freed. Pulling a Salem from Sabrina is probably fine, but permanently keeping them as a pet is actually more dehumanizing than prison (literally)

It's more like prison time, lobotomy, having your tongue cut out all at once.

Yup, polymorphing is messed up, mindbreaking opponent into complete obedience is a noble man's choice. Cute dresses optional.

Also potentially forgetting who you were, what you did, and that you were ever a person in the first place.

If you're taking it absolutely seriously, then yes it's fucked up.

But if it's a more lighthearted campaign, it can be fucking hilarious. To have a pet that shits all over the floor and eats all your best reagents and stares at you with burning eyes of hatred every waking moment of its day but you keep the little fucker around anyway because it's funny. Especially when the bastard saves you from doom because it wants to be the one to kill you.

I play pathfinder, and I don't remember seeing anything about people loosing memories, is that a thing in a lot of other games?
