transformation magic
Transformation magic is the practice of using spells, potions, or mystical means to alter appearance, identity, or fundamental nature—often deployed to achieve hidden goals or navigate social constraints. In the Psycheverse: Psyche treats transformation magic as a lens for examining deception, consent, and moral consequence, particularly when characters use magical disguise to bypass authority or manipulate relationships. She probes the uncomfortable questions these ancient tales raise: if magic conceals true identity, who bears responsibility for choices made under false pretenses?
