You can cast this spell during combat.  It changes the monster into one of three random amphibians:  a [[frog]], a [[newt]], or a [[salamander]]. They are very weak, and give only 1 {{substat}} and 1 item - a [[squashed frog]], [[eye of newt]] or [[salamander spleen]]. The monster does NOT drop any of the items that it would originally have dropped before being CLEESHed unless, at the time of the CLEESHing, the monster has an effect on it which causes it to take continual damage (i.e. [[Disco Bleeding]]).
