You can use an action to polymorph yourself into an object or back into your true form. Your statistics are the same in each form, though your size may be one size smaller. In any polymorphed form your mass is preserved, so objects smaller than your base form are dense than expected and vice versa. Polymorphed forms cannot Objects you are wearing or carrying merge into your transformed form. While transformed, you can speak, move at half your speed, and make unarmed strikes with your pseudopods. You cannot cast spells with somatic or material components, or use objects while transformed, and you revert to your true form when you drop to 0 hitpoints or die.
