When this spell is cast, the creature touched is transformed into a coherent liquid form. At a glance, the creature looks like ordinary sea water, but the sea form stays together like ooze and can flow up walls. The sea form has a movement rate of 3. The spell is typically used to infiltrate an enemy ship, flowing up over the side like water, then slipping down closed hatches and beneath doorways. When the sea form is submerged in a greater body of water it has a neutral buoyancy, and can float or sink at will. Normal shape can be resumed at will. The creature affected by this spell shifts into the sea form without clothes or weapons, and resumes normal shape in the same condition.

The material component is a mouthful of sea water, swallowed by the recipient.

Notes: Uncommon for sea priests; otherwise, very rare.
