For example let's say you had the spell for dogs. You would still roll on the usual table. If you got giant lizards, they would be giant dogs with the stats of giant lizards.

If you got troglodytes, they would be stinky dog men. etc. I think I'll play it like this actually.Darnizhaanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12067874224412746414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6560143148581212281.post-82867633044749966912017-08-23T15:55:43.598-05:002017-08-23T15:55:43.598-05:00Well, it's the same spell.
