Disguise Self Tips & Notes
- Note that appearance cannot be fine tuned more than just race and gender, nor can specific characters be imitated.
Differences from 5th Edition D&D:
- In 5E, the caster is limited in changing their height: an elf can't disguise themself as a halfling, for instance.
- Obviously, the tabletop version of the spell is more free-form, allowing the caster to change their appearance however they like, rather than into a pre-set list of race and gender.

Can apparently also be used to disguise yourself while using Speak with Dead on someone you killed.

Using it to disguise as a Drow is really useful to freely walk pretty much everywhere.

So far I found aside getting specific racial reaction it also give you a few advantages. For example entrances too tiny for other races can be entered if you use it to turn into a halfling.

Whenever I try to use this spell it just says "invalid target" no mater where or when i use it. Not sure if this problem is just me or not because I can't find anyone else talking about it.

Its a shame I can't use this to look like a specific NPC. Wanted to look like a NPC to sneak through, but it seems this only lets you change race and gender.
this spell is neat! every companion can learn it on lvl1-4 so you can run around with party of tieflings or halfling or whatever you like
