Notes
- The description "fits through small openings" includes traveling to different regions by going through small openings (pipes, animal burrows, cat holes, etc.), but also includes moving through 'walls' with openings in them like prison bars and gates.
- As a cloud of mist, you also gain the ability to fly.
- Contrary to the tooltip, unarmed attacks can be made without losing the form. This deals only the base unarmed damage and may go undetected depending on a Stealth check.
