Enchant mask

You enchant a mask of your own creation to allow it's wearer to take the form of the creature portrayed by the mask.

This spell, when cast at higher levels, allows for masks portraying more powerful creatures to be enchanted. The challenge rating of the creature must be equal to or lower than the spell slot used to enchant the mask.

The wearer's game statistics, including mental ability scores, are replaced by the statistics of the new form. It retains its alignment and personality.

The wearer is limited in the actions it can perform by the nature of its new form, and it can't speak, cast spells, or take any other action that requires hands or speech, unless its new form is capable of such actions.

The wearer's gear melds into the new form. The creature can't activate, use, wield, or otherwise benefit from any of its equipment.

The masks sustain their power through their connection to their creator which means there is a limit to the number of masks that can hold an enchantment at a time. This number is equal to 1/4 your wizard level rounded down and once this number is reached you must destroy an existing mask to be able to create a new one.

Hit points of a particular form are tied directly to its mask and damage sustained in the masked form is reflected by the condition of the mask. If a mask's hit points are reduced to 0 while you are wearing the mask, the mask is destroyed, all materials are lost, and any excess damage is dealt to you in the form of psychic damage.

A damaged mask can be repaired over a period of 8 hours of work by the wizard that created it. The repairs don't need to take place all at once and can be done in increments of at least 1 hour.
