Mouse

Mouse is an ailment in Persona 5 that can only be inlicted by enemies.
==Appearances==
* Persona 5 / Royal
==Effect==
When a character is inflicted with Mouse, their model is replaced with their mouse form. Combatants inflicted with Mouse cannot act and will take more damage, although Passive Skills and traits still function as usual. Mouse lasts for two turns and is removed on the combatant's third turn. The combatant will return to their normal form if they die while having Mouse.
In the overworld in Shido's Palace, when turned into a Mouse, the protagonist cannot dash nor open doors, but can crawl through tiny vents. Additionally, the menu is inaccessible while a mouse, hence items cannot be used. If entering a battle during this state, the ailment does not wear off on its own and cannot be cured by Insta-Heal or Fast Heal. Each party member either gets rattled or attempts to escape and will always succeed even when the party is being surrounded. If a party member, including the protagonist, dies, their body stays in the Mouse form.

==Trivia==
* Unlike other party members, who stand on their hindquarters when afflicted with Mouse, Morgana will instead be on all fours.
* If the game is hacked accordingly, attempting to use Trapped Rat against enemies will result in no effect: only player party members can be afflicted.
* According to the internal files of Persona 5, there was originally an item that could cure Mouse known as "Royel Jelly" (possibly "Royal Jelly" misspelled), but the effect is never realized, even if hacked.
* Goro Akechi and Sumire Yoshizawa's Mouse forms exist, even though they are not playable in Futaba's Palace and Shido's Palace, and thus, can never be inflicted with Mouse.
* In the Thieves Den, the protagonist can transform into the Mouse forms of himself and other Phantom Thieves, except Futaba, Akechi, and Sumire.
