==Description==
Aphrodite's Mirror is one of the twelve trasures of the Mieri King. It appears as an ordinary hand mirror with a crosspiece in the handle, making it resemble the symbol for planet Venus. It is silvery-blue in color and very plain.
==Abilities==
When a person touches Aphrodite's Mirror, looks into it and calls himself something, the mirror transforms the user into that thing. For example, if one says "I am an eight hundred pound gorilla", he will be transformed into an eight hundred pound gorilla.
==Origin==
It is not known where the Mirror originated, although some theorize that it was created by the Begheris Undtu, a race of sentient insects who were contemporaries of the ancient Fornaxians. Having discovered the secret of metamorphosis, the Undtu were prevented from publicizing their discoveries by the Fornaxians who believed it could be used as a weapon if some unscrupulous aliens got their hands on it. Undaunted, the Begheris Undtu secretly disseminated metamorphosis technology and genetics on numerous worlds. Aphrodite's Mirror is believed to be one such technological item.
==Others==
Although extremely rare, Aphrodite's Mirror is not unique such mirrors have turned up from time to time in other locations. A rumor exists that the Mirror turned up on Earth in what is now Saudi Arabia, where it was used by an unsuspecting princess who inadvertantly turned herself into a rat, dropping and breaking the mirror in the process. It is not known whether this is the same mirror.
