Fan Works Escafil device - dnd edition!

(unsure if this is the correct flair, let me know and I can change it)

This blue 6 inch cube can hold 10 charges, but it only has 1 charge available. When you expend a charge, you instantaneously grant one willing creature who is touching the cube the power to morph. After that, the power is inside of that creature. The cube regains one expended charge when a morph capable creature dies or nothlits.

Acquiring DNA

When you touch a beast or humanoid other than yourself, you can instantaneously absorb that creature's DNA. Thereafter, you can "morph" the target.

Morphing

Morphing is a process that takes one minute, and you must use your action every round to continue morphing. Your equipment and clothing do not transform along with you, unless the clothing is skintight. While you are morphed, all your statistics, including your mental statistics, are changed to the statistics of the morph. You retain your alignment and your personality. You remain in this form until you demorph to your true form. Demorphing back takes an equivalent time to morphing.

Thought Speak

When you are morphed, you can speak telepathically to any creature you can see within 60 feet of you. Your communication doesn't give the creature the ability to respond to you telepathically.

Healing

When you morph, you are healed to the hit point maximum of the morph. When you demorph, you are healed to your hit point maximum.

Nothlit

If you stay morphed for longer than 2 hours, you will become trapped, unable to demorph to your true form. A Nothlit is a person who has become trapped in morph in this way.

That is perfect. Now you just need to stat block the various alien races and you're well on your way to creating an Animorphs D&D supplement.

Consecutive morphing would add levels of exhaustion I'd imagine.
