This skill needs its in-game message specified via the "usemsg" parameter; see {{Skill}} for more details.

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.
