This powerful illusion enables the wizard to exchange his appearance and position with that of any target creature within range. The wizard and the target individual are teleported to each other's positions. To others, the individual and the caster each seem to have the voice and physical appearance of the other; in effect, none knows that a switch occurs unless the caster has warned them beforehand. A true seeing spell will detect the switch. Note that the teleportation is not without error, and thus, this spell entails some risk on the pan of the caster and the target.
At the end of the duration, or upon a successful dispel magic or dispel illusion spell upon either of the affected individuals, the switch is reversed.
The material component for this spell is a ball of wax.
Notes: Uncommon spell. As a Forgotten Realms Old Empire spell, initial exposure requires a mentor or a read Southern magic spell.
