Transpose (Wizard Spell)

==Dragon Magazine==
The most mysterious of the transfuser's powers appears is the result of this spell— the ability to transfer qualities of an object or person to another object or person. With this spell, the eyes of a courtesan can be given the exotic golden color of a topaz, and a mage flying nearby can be given the weight of a rather large boulder.
Only weight, volume, or color can be transposed. When the spell is cast, the donor and the recipient exchange their respective amounts of the specified quality. In the above example, the topaz now is the color of a courtesan's eyes, and the nearby boulder now weighs as much as a mage.
The amount that can be moved depends on the caster's level:
Weight: Up to 200 lbs. plus 50 lbs. per level. Largely effects Encumbrance (see PHB, tables 47 and 48), although flying creatures may not be able to stay aloft (DM's option).
Volume: Up to one Size Code per five levels of the caster (round down). A 5th- 9th level caster could change a Medium size creature to a Small or a Large, while a 10th-14th level caster could make it Tiny or Huge. Like enlarge, only strength and weight vary with volume—all other characteristics stay the same. Increase damage done and weight by 50% per size code enlarged, or decrease both by 25% per size code shrunk.
Color: This version of the spell has only cosmetic effects but may be used for disguise. Color may be moved to or from any object weighing 1,000 lbs. or less.
Transpose is not a perfect spell—the caster may never remove more than 99% of a subject quality. In addition, the apportation has a curious side effect. If the spell is directed at an unwilling target who successfully makes a successful saving throw vs. spells to avoid its effects, the caster must also immediately save or be affected by his own spell. Fortunately, a successful saving throw also damps out the spell before it affects other bystanders.
The material component of this spell is a miniature set of scales set with seven gems, each a different color of the rainbow. This item costs at least 500 gp, but it is reusable.
