Serpent Bond is a spell on the Serpent Isle for transforming a mage into a snake.

Spell Description[edit]

Casting Serpent Bond causes the mage to temporarily polymorph into a snake, allowing passage through narrow spaces. Also, in a battle the mage can use its snake-form venomous fangs as weapons to defend against vermin like rats. Additionally, a small snake can spy on people, since no one pays attention to them.

Lore[edit]

This spell permits the caster to exchange forms with a targeted snow serpent, thus allowing new ways of travel for the duration of the spell.

Trivia[edit]

  • This spell’s description in Beyond the Serpent Pillars is misleading, as no actual serpent is needed.
  • This spell can be used to break triggers in the game. Casting it before entering Gorlab Swamp brings the companions to the Dream Realm, so the player can take the items back to the real world. It also allows keeping Mortegro and Sethys in the party, as their disappearances are not triggered.
