They can be created in a few ways - naturally through an [[Random_events#Spawn_Morph|event]], through a bolt of change, or through Gluttony's Blessing. You have very few ways to interact with the world as you are unable to pick up or use any item. However, you have several unique abilities to help you. | ||

*When undisguised, you move very slowly, but you have significantly more speed once morphed. This can aid you if you need to flee. | |||
*You deal 20 brute damage while untransformed, and cannot attack while disguised. | |||
*You can communicate at any time, but your speech will be heavily slurred; this makes you both hard to understand and capable of revealing the fact that you are a morph. | |||

The only way you can regenerate health is by eating a dead lifeform, anything will do and you can do this in both disguised and undisguised states. You can also eat non-organic items such as guns or metal, but this provides no benefit besides denying those items to anyone else. | The only way you can regenerate health is by eating a dead lifeform, anything will do and you can do this in both disguised and undisguised states.

When you first enter the station, try and find a simple disguise. Disguise as something benign like a pen, paper or some blood and find a good disguise. A human or cyborg disguise will work, however a disguise like beepsky works wonders in open hallways. | |||

Avoid having to talk to humans, but if you must communicate with humans, keep your words short. Longer speech will have a higher chance of being slurred. So instead of saying "Hi how are you?", which will come out as "Hii hoawww'w arree yoou?", say "Hi." Also consider emoting instead of talking, such as waving. | Avoid having to talk to humans, but if you must communicate with humans, keep your words short.
