This has long been regarded as a disabling curse, but recent discoveries have uncovered the secret that there is more to this power: the form granted by the springs is a metaphysical iconic state embodying the ideal of that which the spring in question imprinted upon. Those who are able to tap into this state through training and meditation may achieve a variety of powers dependent upon the nature of what the spring imprinted upon: at its most basic, they may take on a glamoured state where they appear to be a distinct entity of the same type, such as a person who fell in the 'Spring of Drowned Cat' being able to appear to be one or another individual cats by focusing their mind.
